You know, now that I think about it, I have never had another native person express discomfort in the idea of me reconnecting with my culture just because I'm light. Quite the opposite in fact. most of the support I get in that endeavor comes from other native people. maybe I should stop letting my anxiety get the better of me and just... get started.

Gun control, racism, Just staying up at night thinking of dumb shit I've done in the past
I remember once in freshman year in high school, my government teacher had us do an assignment about whether or not we should have gun control. This was also a partner project.
I was partnered with this black girl named Robin. She talked about her experiences with gun violence and police violence, and my ass had the gall to look her in the eyes and say "But what about the second amendment"
Robin, if you're out there, I am so sorry you had to put up with my racist dumbass. You deserved better
