I can see what the author talks about, especially when there many jokes and stereotypes spread about your race and religion. previously when I heard a joke about the way I wear, my ethnicity, or religion I just ignore it and pretend like I didn’t hear anything, I knew I need to step out from this situation and try to do something about it, yet I didn’t have any clue or idea about what I should do. When I read “Don't Just Stand There," by Diane Cole, I get some ideas about how I need to react. I agree with the author when she said it is necessary to come up with a respond when you heard anything offensive about your religion, race, or ethnicity. In my opinion by not responding to the slurs seems like you agree with the comment or what it came
