    Reminds me of the story that goes around these parts (Wales) of a far-right type demanding a pair of Middle Eastern-looking women speak English when in Britain. They were in fact speaking Welsh, the oldest living language spoken in Britain.

      Not just your parts, that story went round nationally.

      I thought the actual woman came forward, but I can only find this person’s report, so who knows if he made it up. Still funny though.

      Different than the bus episode, but this one did interview the woman to whom it happened.

        I just think it’s more common for people speaking American to be discriminated against across the world.

          You’re probably right. America is a melting pot, and, especially in cities, everyone is used to hearing foreign languages being spoken in public. Most places around the world are more homogeneous by comparison, and often surprisingly racist.
