I admitted to be stereotypical and ignorant but Im not gonna accept being labeled as racist. If I was racist I wouldnt entertain the thought of her being anything other than Muslim. Me being racist in this scenario would me be like SHE HAS TO BE MUSLIM AND CANT BE ANYTHING ELSE

you have a very narrow view of what racism is tbh

racism is, put simply, making assumptions about someone based on their race. which you did, despite evidence to the contrary. in fairness to you, you did then ask, just in case. so you weren't as racist as you could have been

all you need to do is say that next time, you won't look at a brown person talking about Christianity and automatically assume they're Muslim because they're brown and all will be well imo (and then, naturally, act on it)

signed,
a Muslim
