Yellow Peril was a phrase that referred to Chinese immigration.

When I lived in Palo Alto, one of the kids was on a soccer team with yellow jerseys, and they could not decide on a name. I suggested the Perils, and wait for the screams.

You’re a little bit racist!
Well, you’re a little bit too!
We’re both a little bit raaacist…
Admitting it is not an easy thing to do
but I guess it’s true
between me and you…

Why can’t we all laugh about the racial cracks instead of getting all huffy and defensive about em?
