Both sides now





Got something to get off your chest?  Say it here.


There!   I've said it:

Being neither white nor black sometimes means that one gets it from both sides.

Whites that are prejudiced, and blacks that are prejudiced as well.

Often from blacks.

And sometimes from whites, who may be redirecting frustration towards a "safe" target (you, "your people").

I don't think this is true of the reverse, as blacks don't seem to have any problem directly blaming and expressing their resentment and anger at ("telling off") white people.

"Don't personalize it."

Try try as I might...
