I just reblogged you implications of being bi-racial and I am truly inspired by how you were able to express the struggles that come along with being both black and white. I have had a lot of identity issues and reading that really helped. It's good to know there are people out there that have dealt with and experienced similar judgements and expectations. So thank you for sharing, and keep writing from the soul!

I honestly was scared to post that when I first wrote it. I thought people were going to tell me I was whining/underestimating my privilege/yadda yadda. And although now it seems a little unsophisticated to me (I’m totally my biggest critic), it was real at the time and I had to express it. My perspective has evolved since then (I’m waiting for the articulation to come to me so I can share it with you), but I get these kinds of messages a lot (most of them seem too private to answer them publicly). Still, I appreciate every single time someone reaches out to me, because it reminds me that I’m not alone too… that’s the feeling we’re all after anyway, right?


Seriously though… thank you.
