It truly is. I mentioned in another thread that it wasn't until I was 32-33 that I realized how ingrained anti-blackness was in my own thought process & behaviors, family, community...etc. I'm grateful for those who held me accountable but also gave me an opportunity to do better
Yes, I am *so* grateful. It took a lot of love and generosity on the part of a friend who pointed out some of my anti-blackness racism that took *years* for me to fully understand. When I did, I sobbed and sobbed (not with her).
It took me a few months to really understand. I was called out, I was defensive and confused because I didn't see how what I was doing was anti-black..which in my case was co-opting BLM and oppression olympics even tho as we all here...not my intent or understanding.
It took me a while, numerous questions and really being able to listen and hear what was being said. And then it snowballed cuz once I started to understand what anti-blackness was, i started piecing it together and realizing how prevalent/normalized it was in my environment.
