Hi. My name is Carrie.
I’m a racist.
I would love to tell you that I haven’t always been this way, but that’s a damn lie. I have. For most of my life, I didn’t know I was a racist. And if I did know it, I pretended not to know it so hard that I couldn’t see it.https://goodmenproject.com/social-ju...o-change-cmtt/Maybe you’re like me. Maybe you didn’t know that you are a racist. Maybe that phrase sticks in your throat, punches you in the gut, makes you recoil on a primal level because YOU LOVE PEOPLE OF COLOR. You love your neighbor. You want good things for them. I did, too, and I still do. And yet it doesn’t change the truth that as white people, racism is ingrained in us.
