Differences based on skin color are meaningless.
Peel off your skin and everyone looks exactly the same inside.
The sooner we realize that fact the sooner we'll be able to progress
Whites should have learned that 243 years ago instead of building a caste system based on race. Now since the system is built you want to talk all that colorblind shit knowing that you have the advantage.
FYI My mom was half black
so if I wanted to I could call myself African American
I have never checked that box
So don't tell me what I do or don't know about racism.
In fact I was hassled by black kids because my mom was a light skinned biracial
I usually don't engage in race talk from either side because IMO the only way to starve the beast into submission is not to feed it
An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life:
“A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy.
“It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil–he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.”
He continued, “The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you–and inside every other person, too.”
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: “Which wolf will win?”
The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”
