I never knew so many people were anti-black, hated being black until I joined Reddit.

I’m still fairly new here. But I grew up around black people, all my schools with predominantly black student, I went to a PWI for college to diversify my life experience but still found many black people on campus. I mainly work with white people but all my friends are still black.

I have never encountered any black man or woman who hated being black. (Not that they have admitted to me anyways)

I’ve even experience blatant racism myself and never once thought “I wish I wasn’t black” I couldn’t imagine being anyone else outside of myself!

It’s very eye opening to see how different our life experiences are and how that shapes our thinking even though we are all the same race because I just assumed we all enjoyed being black. Reddit is teaching me a lot!
