Racism sucks. I definitely experience “white guilt” in moments when I catch myself with bias and I am trying to – daily – unlearn the preconceptions my (pretty racist) parents taught me. It breaks my heart knowing what POC face, based on a part of them that they can’t change or control. It fills me with rage for them and motivates me to stand up for them when the situation calls for it.
