I believe that, if you pursue truth far enough, everything will be okay. On the other side, there will be compassion and acceptance. If it looks 'bad' on the way through, it's just because you don't have the full story, but this shouldn't stop you from acknowledging harsh truths.

Yes! Posturing as if we have all the ethical answers is ineffective at solving problems AND it also betrays human complexity. From experience growing up in a community of religious black/white thinking, I know the inability to question leads only to exorcisms, fear, and hate

It's just that anecdotal evidence is bullshit. I'm a mixed race Brit, half South African and half English. I've never heard the trope that black people cat call more than white. And in the UK the stereotype is reversed. Maybe you should be open to being wrong

I agree in principal, but you didn't follow up your two examples with any comment on how/if they actually did help you learn about the people or stories involved, or increased your compassion for them. If you didn't, don't your examples fall pretty flat?
