Today's lesson, Racism. If you see something written here that you’ve said or done, use it as an opportunity. Take it as a wake up call and make the decision to grow, change and be conscious of your own privilege. Remember, I am not a speaker for the entirety of a people.

I probably would too. You think they’re sympathizing with you and in hindsight they’re really making it about…
I agree but I think the reason I would have later been mad at myself was because that woman was upset when SHE was confronted with it. Not when she saw someone else actually being abused. The lady wasn’t a victim at all but the idea of it alone, made her cry.
Yet, still didn’t speak up during.
I wouldn’t have thought about it at the time. I think I would have seen how upset she was and then felt like she was just as hurt by it as I was. I wouldn’t have thought better until later, I think. At that moment, it is so upsetting, emotional and scary that I think I would have been happy for ANY sign of someone being on my side.

They don’t see anything wrong with it though. That is the part that is so upsetting to me. It’s perfectly acceptable to “Not be racists” AND “Not get involved.” They see no connection there what so ever. It’s terrifying to me.

white guy. “Probably played…black card, right?”
I felt rage when I saw that.
