Comment on Do you also feel cringe about people making such a big deal about ethnicity?
dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 hours agoyeah, I’m not really doubting OP’s intentions, I’m just trying to clue them in to how others might see their post so they aren’t surprised if it gets flagged
I think race issues were apparent to me as a young child, but it took the form of feeling insecure and unsure how to interact with racial minority peers of mine in school and so on, not wanting to make them feel uncomfortable but feeling fragile around them and thus accidentally introducing stigma. It was an awful feeling, and something that just didn’t happen with other students.
