Have you ever been told to "go back" to your country? Tell us about your experience in the comments. President Trump on Sunday told 4 congresswomen of color to "go back" to their countries. All but one were born in the United States. The president's words reflected a love-it-or-leave-it sentiment that experts say has animated a sense of xenophobia since as early as the 1600s.

thiskoreankitchen It was in middle school. Seventh grade, I believe. Someone in my year book wrote it. “Go back where you came from.” I was adopted from South Korea and grew up going to a predominantly white school district. In elementary school (first grade in particular), I was an easy target to be teased. “Flat face,” was the most common description / name tossed my way. I wanted nothing more than to not be “different” and fit in. Luckily, I have some of the most loving parents and was able to forge great friendships. As I finished elementary school, the name calling seemingly became a thing of the past. Middle school started, and i still hadn’t given the “teasing” another thought. Then, as I’m looking through my year book at the end of (what I believe was) my seventh grade year, I see that phrase written in my year book, and all those feelings come rushing back. The feelings of never being accepted or fitting in because I wasn’t “normal,” or in this case...white. When confronted by friends who saw what this person had written, I put on a show. Having developed a thicker skin early in elementary school, it was easy to hide the pain and pretend it wasn’t there. I’m not sure how many people know this story, nor do I think my parents know. I didn’t bring it up. I didn’t want to bring attention to it. It was my way to cope with it. Brush it off and pretend like it doesn’t bother you, and don’t bring attention to it. I still to this day don’t know drove this person to write this in my yearbook. We were acquaintances at best. It may have been a “joke” or something truly malicious. But regardless, the words did their damage, and it’s a wound that hasn’t fully healed almost 20 years later.

basma.marmosh I’ve been told on numerous occasions to go back to my country. I am a proud Muslim woman who covers and adorns my head with a hijab or scarf. Many times I would be walking or driving and someone would yell out “go Back to your country.” The most depressing time was when someone with a very heavy accent told me to “go back”. I was born and raised in Sacramento California. I attended all my schooling here played soccer joined girls scouts, gymnastics did what every typical American child does. Why should I be told to go back to my country just because I look different or fit the stereotype of what the current rhetoric portrays as anti-American. This is my country and I’m here to stay.

eligodesign yes, so many times actually. eversince i was a little kid. first thing that i remember is that i was not allowed to play in their playgrounds. things didn't change to better when i was groving up. the past two decades i was hardly getting a job. now that i have health issues i'm not getting a disability insurance and am also at high risk to be kicked out. i do not live in the usa but here in europe is not any better. xenophobia and rasism is getting worse with every year. there are so many things going on that affect my health and well being. it's hard to talk about since no one wants to listen or they add their atrocities to the story.

dil_ettante Yes, multiple times in my life. Every single time, it came from the mouth of an angry white man, and most times with no prior interaction. Thing is, I’m 100% white (heritage from Russia and Germany mostly, part of my family comes from German anabaptist religious exiles who came to the US in about 1800). I’m just short, dark, and swarthy, so I guess I’m not the “right” kind of white. I also get asked “no, where are you REALLY from?” quite often when I say I’m from New Jersey. For me, these experiences have really shown me how much “looking right” matters to some people.

kylecooollins @tai_adaya have absolutely no problem with a minority in power. If they work hard and deserve it no one is upset about it. People start to get upset when things are given just because of their race. Making things politically correct is what bothers people. Also no one cares what race you are. The left side brings race into everything. They always say “a black man did...” just call him a man. You never see them saying “a white man...”. If you pay attention everything the left side does is about race and is bringing back the division to gain votes.

sunfish76 I live in Michigan. Born in Brooklyn ny Queens New Jersey in high school. I am Italian American. Visiting a friend near Bay City who was having her church group over for a bbq. A man with a NRA hat saw my husband and I get out of our car. As we walked over he said " I think I'll go get my gun and kill me some Mexicans. " I said excuse me who are you talking to? He look at my husband blonde and green eyes and said what's your story? My husband told him he wasn't being
