reminds me of Frasier and Niles enjoying their wine via the strong constitutional agenda dictating the terms of said enjoyment

if you're white and confused by the voices and experiences of other humans that one identifies as 'different', listen. it's fun, you learn new stuff.

then get comfortable with discomfort, if as people we're ever to rise above the oppressive social systems we have created we need to get ok with having our epistemologies challenged. sometimes important stuff isn't easy or comfortable and requires risk in being willing to consider that everything we know via lived experience may not be actually true

tl;dr we need to get over ourselves and start respecting and listening. and demanding that the privileges we experience are afforded to everyone. that takes nothing away from those of us with pale faces

there, just saved some of ya'll 56k

you're welcome =)
