One thing I find weird is how minorities who were once highly oppressed (Italian-Americans, for example, which is one of my heritages) often go on to oppress other minorities.
I try to take pride in the once-oppressed-minority part, rather than the now-an-oppressor part. There are *always* people within such groups who speak out against bigotry, as you've just demonstrated.
