They also practiced empathy toward each other.  To this day, I am still friends with these people.  These people also give me hope that one day the hardest black conversation can happen without judgement and without fear.

Desensitized Until Forced to Feel.

A Lesson From what was My White Feminist Friend.

She reminded me that she is indeed a white feminist…she was a white woman in America. No matter what we have in common she could never truly be my ally.

I Was Wrong When I Said #MeToo and Here’s Why…
