Real

Today’s events trigger me on so many levels. I WITNESSED my parents get discriminated over and over ever since I was young. I carry that with me and I get triggered when I get discriminated over and over. The color of our skin carries its own narrative. This is heavy and it’s real. The discussion of social and racial injustice is a sensitive one that requires empathy, ability to listen, and ability to peacefully call someone out when differences show up. It’s okay to be different but it’s not okay to hate because of the difference.
