...assumed white (I was very pale when I was younger, and my dad used to compare me to Audrey Hepburn, which I think is all I really have to say.)

I’m now at least vocal enough that people KNOW I’m not white, but I’m sure that I still receive some privilege that I’m less than aware of. It is my hope, along other things, to realize that privilege and do what I can to make it better

So if nothing else, I will spend this year amplifying the voices of my black peers. And you should too.
