the thing about racism
is that white people
(and lighter skinned privileged or weathly folks)
can deny racism exists
and then people of color have to convince
unconvincible people that racism really does exist
or else the oppression people of color face
is deemed personal opinion
Welcome to Race Has Nothing To Do WIth You
Much of my life is consumed by schools, so what I write is directly related to educators, students, advocates, parents, and caring people. But I am human, and I write about what moves me. I write so I can survive the hatred, ignorance, and blatant apathy towards low income people of color. Read on, and if you love or hate what I write, let me know. Peace.

and then you have
the people of color
that scream "reverse racist"
to the person of color
if they are proud of their heritage
invested their commmunity
conscious of racist acts:
can pinpoint racism on an individual
and
systemic level
and
refuse to remain blinded and silent about the issue
