well I see some some wariness in some
well I see some some wariness in some areas right well maybe you’re worried
areas right well maybe you’re worried
areas right well maybe you’re worried because you see psychologist then you
because you see psychologist then you
because you see psychologist then you think oh maybe I’m gonna analyze you

well oh good I’m glad not you know oh
well oh good I’m glad not you know oh maybe you think oh I’m a mind reader
maybe you think oh I’m a mind reader
maybe you think oh I’m a mind reader right or maybe some of you are thinking
right or maybe some of you are thinking
right or maybe some of you are thinking whoa hang on that Indian guy he’s not a
whoa hang on that Indian guy he’s not a
whoa hang on that Indian guy he’s not a doctor an engineer right you know people
doctor an engineer right you know people
doctor an engineer right you know people see Indian and they jumped a doctor or
see Indian and they jumped a doctor or
see Indian and they jumped a doctor or engineer and don’t worry Indians do it
engineer and don’t worry Indians do it
engineer and don’t worry Indians do it all the time too right I was in graduate
all the time too right I was in graduate
all the time too right I was in graduate school and I remember I went to the spot
school and I remember I went to the spot
school and I remember I went to the spot lock so I thought hey free food right
lock so I thought hey free food right
lock so I thought hey free food right grad school and there were 40 of the
grad school and there were 40 of the
grad school and there were 40 of the Indians there and every single one of
Indians there and every single one of
Indians there and every single one of them said to me hey what sort of
them said to me hey what sort of
them said to me hey what sort of engineer are you and I’d say I’m an
engineer are you and I’d say I’m an
engineer are you and I’d say I’m an engineer and they said oh you must be
engineer and they said oh you must be
engineer and they said oh you must be doctor then no no now here’s the thing
doctor then no no now here’s the thing
doctor then no no now here’s the thing right you probably guessing but you know
right you probably guessing but you know
right you probably guessing but you know a lot of Indians who are engineers and
a lot of Indians who are engineers and
a lot of Indians who are engineers and Indians were doctors and I think that’s
Indians were doctors and I think that’s
Indians were doctors and I think that’s the thing about stereotypes any useful
the thing about stereotypes any useful
the thing about stereotypes any useful they’re mostly true but they’re not
they’re mostly true but they’re not
they’re mostly true but they’re not always true and I think that’s one of
always true and I think that’s one of
always true and I think that’s one of the big things we have to hang on to
the big things we have to hang on to
the big things we have to hang on to just like that Indians tear dive I’m
just like that Indians tear dive I’m
just like that Indians tear dive I’m also guessing that you have some
