Yet, this is somehow not as significant. Or not taken seriously. And I'm expected to suck it up and take it.
They were racist. They beat you up and bullied you for being in the minority in your area. They mistreated you because of the color of your skin. They were mad at you because you are different from them. Either way they were wrong & it is important & relevant.
Do you trust Black people after experiencing something like that?

Haha I have more black friends than white ones! Not that any of that matters, but even though I was put through all that crap, I never once blamed it on the entire race. I mean, you just can't do that! Everyone is their own individual person, so you can't go blaming an entire race for something only a few people did to you! So yeah I trust them.
good to know.
