And, what anyone of a different color, experiences every. single. day. I have lived in countries where my gringa skin and red hair made me a poster for “harass me”. I spent my first six years of life in a neighborhood where I was “the white girl.” This has to stop… for anyone… of any color… It is time we all became aware, accepting, and tolerant of those who appear different from us. Our varying cultures are amazing, holding an incredible wealth of diverse love and understanding. Perhaps we all need to become a different kind of color blind.
