Racial Construct that won’t stop me

Leonard McReynolds,
Atlanta, GA.

I’m a black Puerto Rican who lives in the United States. At Times, it makes navigating race relations difficult, for everyone likes to put me in a box. Either I am not black enough because I speak Spanish, or not Puerto Rican enough because I am black. However, I will not let the ignorance of my surroundings affect how I view myself and my identity.
