Hey, I am sure I have not had it as bad as some like yourself. I have a survival strategy huh. It's their problem not mine, so fcuk 'em. On the one hand I cannot save the world from its own ignorance and stupidy, which is what all racism is, and on the other hand, I will not take shit from nobody. So at times I will fight it, including on behalf of black people who I think DO come in for a lot harder time of it. I have quite a few back friends who I love dearly. Funny thing is I just don't see them as black. My mate Derek is as black as night, but to me he's just Derek.
Anyway, hang on in their kidda, I get you, others don't. Don't worry about them, you look out for yourself and know that there are lots of good folk who have got your back huh. Be good. And thank you for your very kind comments re my writing.
