In clubhouse (a voice-only app), I've had the chance to listen to lots of rooms of entirely black people talk, which I rarely get to hear in my daily life. It turns out black people on clubhouse talk about being black a *lot*. They reference blackness in relation to everything.

The fact that white people aren't typically 'othered' based on race doesn't mean we shouldn't recognize and talk about our whiteness. What made the othering feel explicit to you?

It's a bit different but sorta - I was homeschooled and isolated from the outside world until I was an adult. I experienced a cultural disconnect for several years - I didn't know the pop culture or the music, lingo was different, my clothing was very out of touch.
