Recently I studied in Japan and had some unfortunately racist encounters from workers in the JR, bus services, etc. It made me depressed, and I wonder if I should even continue learning Japanese. It was fun at first learning in class with my teachers, but once I left those insulated places, my perspective changed. 🙁 Idk how to move past wanting to learn a language when a big chunk of the population just hates foreigners.
Sorry for the vent. Idk if anyone else has dealt with feelings like this.
