Prior to this course, I thought about racial stuff. But now I'm thinking about it more than ever. I'm gonna be speaking on it at East on the 25th and posting a blog on the site with similar content. It's great to know that it is just a contribution to a conversation that is ongoing and not an isolated conversation. All of my hopelessness in the government / society to fix problems of racism is starkly contrasted by the efforts that many in our community have begun to make in order to become aware and to be in solidarity at times with those who suffer because of Racism.

I did not realize that the Water Department was famous for being systemically racist, until you enlightened me. Taking risks to make a difference is like Jesus.

It's on my mind a lot, I have a lot of confused identity issues and don't really know where I fall into place. It's good to know that you're making more sense of something that works best when its victims and perpetrators are confused. I’m really happy that you wrote about this topic.
