Racial microaggressions

Small, accumulating insults and slights—a comment on your accent, surprise at your competence, being asked where you're 'really' from—that seem minor in isolation but operate as a constant message that you don't quite belong. Microaggressions are powerful precisely because they can be explained away as innocent, allowing the person delivering them to deny harm while the person receiving it absorbs the relentless implication.
