Oh man, I winced when I read that paragraph, especially the last sentence. Because I've been there so many times, and a lot of those times, I had myself convinced that it was a problem with me.
It's been really interesting watching my own circle shift in the past year when I started thinking about race more consciously; I suspect it'll shift even more as I go on. Because I need to be able to talk about all parts of my life, and this is a big part of it.
