People of Color

Am white. I am not going to apologize for them.

I've (tried) had the same talks with white friends.

Racism is a latent trait in almost every person.

Education and upbringing form the frame of reference.

I was fortunate to be brought up in a certain way. I continuously challenge my views, knowledge, and beliefs. I manage a student rental property and have opportunity to ask and discuss things about things with people from all over the world, from different cultures, religions, races, ages.

I like to think I listen and grow.

Belief that one is altruistic is a hard thing to change. People don't want to change. Or they complain they're being forced to change.

I definitely don't always know if something I've done is racist. I'm not the subject in that context.

There are things I believe are. And there are things I thought weren't, but are.

That said, a lot of people suck, are ignorant or think their view is the only view.

I'm tired, too.

I hope you can find rest somewhere, somehow.
