Born in Hawaii, minority white girl.

Growing up white in Hawaii is a unique experience in race – you’re a minority in number but not an “economic minority”. You watch yourself and don’t act better than others. I was beat up twice for being in the wrong place but didn’t feel unsafe in my home. It is the most gentle place I’ve ever lived, as long as you follow the rules.
