Okay, I'm gonna say sorry for some of the words I'll be using but anywhos.
You know when you say like negro [sp] or nigger to an african american or call everyone from south american mexicans (which means you're ignoring their individuality) it's considered racism and rude and hateful remarks using vitriolic words? Well, when people call someone form south korea a chinese or japanese, that's considered racism too. It's saying that all the individual countries are not important enough for them to acknowledge them as seperate places.

It's really hurtful to the person recieving these racist remarks like me. I'm from south korea and there's this girl that keeps on calling me chinese or japanese and makes fun of me by saying japanese or chinese--or at least attmepting to say them--and pretend like i'm from that country and sometimes she carries it on by saying "DO YOU UN-DER-STAND?" in slow mo as if I wouldn't understnad it if she talked like a normal person. She keeps on calling me "chinese girl" and today she even said to her friends--who I do not know-- "Oh this is that little chinese girl that I was talking about" in a really rude tone.

I've experienced racism since I got to US which is in 4th grade and I'm still experiencing it everywhere I go and I'm in 9th grade right now. No one understands that being racist against a person is really hurtful and they won't know because they haven't experienced it. I've told her that she may think it's funny but it really isn't and i've said some things that I shouldn't have. But I really can't take this anymore because she's geting her friends to join in against this ridiculous thing against me and I'm really just about to cry and I don't know what to do.

I can't ignore her because then she goes onto say "Oh, that chinese girl is deaf" or something like that and it's just hard not to get upset over it. My friend knows this and she saw me almost cry several times within the last week. What do I do about this situation? I don't wanna do what she's doing to me and I don't want to sink down to her level. Suggestions?

wow that's just really rude. You definitely need to tell the school administation. That's just verbal harrassment and she can get into a lot of trouble for that.
If she keeps saying stupid stuff like that, just ignore her. She obviously has nothing better to do than try to raise her own self-esteem by trying to make fun of other people.
If you want to really get her about it though, next time she does that, start speaking korean to her. Then say "Do you understand?" She wouldnt be able to understand and just look stupid. Then you can point out "btw that was korean." Or if she says something like "DO YOU UNDERSTAND" you can just say "yeah, i understand... i understand that you're retarded, what have you been learning in school? How to be racist?" But honestly, i would do that but you wouldnt want to do that... but seriously, people like that are just jerks and stupid. Dont take that kind of talk from her.

I hope i've helped but you can always message me for more help if you need it :)
