Wow, thank you for this! I wish I could articulate the struggles we have like [USER=231]Bmick#8[/USER] can. I never really thought of things quite like this, but you've changed my mind on a lot of things. Then again, spending time on this forum has taught me a lot, and has helped me grow more.


We have to stick together for sure, especially in this day and age, when there's constant news about us getting killed by police, being harassed by white people on the streets because we look "Suspicious", and so on. It's never ending.


When you bring up the college portion, and how you used to party, I did similar things. I've dealt with cops myself, and thankfully nothing bad ever happened, but I was still scared of the possibility they would end up doing something to me.


I also want to comment on your mention of going abroad and how you were treated the same pretty much. I have always wanted to travel, but I always feared that even in other countries I'd be looked at differently. I still want to travel, but I think I'll wait until I can bring some friends along.
