"It was part of an exercise dealing with the damage caused by ethnic jokes and stereotypes. The words... spelled out the insults Juanita would expect from those who dislike her skin tone, her heritage, her accent..."

The insults she would "expect" to hear.

No one actually called her those things. She wrote them down because she felt that's what people might call her.

Actually, it's what the reporter says she wrote down.

And that's presuming the reporter didn't invent Juanita, in the first place.

Frankly, I smell a column created out of wishful bong smoke...

Yes, my friend, we are expected to writhe in self-loathing guilt because of a string of racist epithets this gal "would expect" to hear.

Pretty strange, no?
