50 years after King, hidden racism lives on

Updated 10:00 AM EDT,
Mon Aug 26, 2013

Fifty years ago, Martin Luther King Jr. dreamed out loud of an end to racism. Fifty years since, it's still here, though arguably more relegated to the private sphere than it was in King's day. To mark the anniversary of his speech, CNN invited readers to share their personal experiences of "everyday racism," the ways prejudice still creeps into American life. We hope you'll join the conversation by adding your own stories in the comments or tagging #everydayracismcnn on Twitter.

A note: These stories include frank and honest discussions of race. They may be upsetting to some.
