Sometimes I am ashamed of being hispanic but we can’t do anything about it except accept and learn to embrace our culture and our skin.

I used to hate being a woman, but that is no longer the case. There is no easy way to address it, but to come to terms with who you are. Unfortunately this is not a choice we are allowed to make.

You put yourself in a terrible spot when you decide to hate something that you can never change. The good thing is that you can change the hate if you learn to embrace the vast qualities of being who you are.

I hate being black. I hate being white. I hate being a woman. I hate being Asian. I hate being whatever. If they are issues that you can’t change, you are expending a lot of energy for no useful purpose. It is essential that you come to terms with it if you want to live a happier life.

those are all superficial reasons. what you are is so much more than that. be proud of your culture–that’s what lets you see things in a different light and largely what makes you who you are on the inside.

when i was young, i hated being asian because other people made treated me badly because of it. it wasn’t until i got older than i realized how wrong that was.

just think about it–if other people didn’t treat you that way, would still still hate being black? if not, then you’re barking up the wrong tree. there are bigots everywhere who will hate you for being black, female, whatever. try not to let them get to you. just remember–it’s not you; it’s them. =)

I hate being bangladeshi. I hate my country and almost everything about it. I hate my breasts. I hate my hairy body. I hate being a woman. I hate that as a woman, my high intelligence does not compensate for looks or shyness. My success and personal qualities are not valued as highly as they are in a man. Yet a man who is less intelligent, driven, attractive and philanthropical than me is more socially valued than I am and has a broad choice of partners.

I hate being white. I hate the skin color. Ever since I was 5 years old, i wanted dark skin, because my Venezualan friend had darker skin, and I thought it was so pretty. I hate the fact that I feel like I have no culture, compared with say Asians or Latinos. I feel like I’m nothing special by being white. I also hate being a woman, because it seems so hard for me to ever get anyone. I hate being American. I don’t feel any pride in being American. It’s boring. I hate that English is my first language, it’s also boring. I just feel boring!!!

I hate being a black woman. I hate living near or even seeing other black people. When I go to a place with a lot of other blacks, I hold tightly to my purse and always look for someone to be the star of the 6 o’clock news and end up another cell block member in the state prison. To the black people who decided to do something POSITIVE and LEGAL with their lives, kudos to you. To the other lazy, uneducated, scummy looking men with your hair looking like my 2nd grade yearbook pictures and pants hanging so low, I’m surprised you don’t have a hole in the seat…..ACT LIKE ADULTS PLEASE!!!!!!!!! You are a true embarrassment to my race. Grow up and pull your pants that way too! I don’t care about fashion, you look plain stupid. Get a job and leave other young girls alone. Take responsibility for what you do and leave things alone that does not belong to you. For the young girls…. if you are not yet an adult, stop acting like it and dressing that way. Just because “lil whoever ” has 36 inch rims does not mean that he is what you need to impress. Stop having sex before marriage and stop having babies for me to pay extra for in my taxes because you wanted to be the block “chick”and let the government pay for you. . I’m tired of seeing you go to a public area with decent people around and shake your butt around, dancing provocatively, because a song came on that you like. Grow the heck up and act like you can speak, live like and act like humans. You are humans and not animals like so many of you want to act like, in case you have forgotten. Another thing, I don’t want to hear your music when I am in my bed sleeping because you want the neighborhood to hear you. That is just plain idiotic too! Baby names is another thing that I HATE, please “baby mommas” don’t decide what you will name your kid based on a game of darts with letters instead of numbers or pick letters from a hat, give him/her a name that they can spell in Kindergarten and is not a tongue twister like Quanteriaun or Dydrey? What they heck is that, these are not names they sound like types of rare diseases. Be “REAL” and get with the program. Like Obama said, it is time for CHANGE!!!

I too am a victim of “self hate”. I was never mistreated or subject to racism; my own self hate manifested on its own from much observation of Blacks and how they carry themselves. I do not like myself as a “Black” female. I find wide noses and big lips and nappy hair inferior in beauty to euro-centric features. I struggle everyday with my identity as a “Black” female and it hurts. It hurts. Oh, and Unhappy’s comment is so full of truth and humor. I am so disgusted with Black mainstream culture and Blacks in general. It’s disgusting. They’re disgusting. I find White men more attractive because their features are better and they have better grasp of the English language and present themselves better. I might sound delusional but I speak from the heart when I say I find Black men disgusting. And Black women I don’t find any better. Well, some of them. It’s just an internal daily struggle, not just for me, but for a alot of people. I want to bleach my skin and look lighter like my sister. I was raised around Caucasians for a long pary of my childhood and I can say with honesty that I am proud of my fluent speech and “White” sounding accent. I prefer those over “Black” Accents any day.I envy white women for their long straight hair. Am I wrong? Also, I wish I was at least biracial. They have much better hair and skin and carrier wise are more accepted. I never want children but If I did I’d want my children to be Bi-racial. Absolutely no black babies. I could go on and on but….Am I wrong? Is there a cure for this? I wish Black people would stop reinforcing all the negative things I think about them…

But it’s more than that. I now absolutely want to wish away my God-given Afro-centric features and replace them with Euro-centric ones. That’s how bad it is and growing worse.

I despise being Black every single day. I hate the fact that I’m descended from a race that built no great monuments, recorded no history, produced no worthwhile culture of its own. I am enraged that no matter how hard I work or how accomplished I am in my field, I will never feel good enough or smart enough or comfortable with my peers. I am disgusted that the race, as a whole, has proven itself incapable of self-governance or self-control; there isn’t a country, city, state, township, or corner in the world that is run by Blacks and run well. And I am saddened that the race is disproportionately peopled with individuals who are determined to squander all chances at self-improvement.

The world believes Blacks are genetically inferior, subhuman animals whose greatest benefit to mankind has been as slaves of various cultures. Blacks have no proof to the contrary. Should Black Africa ever emerge from its rut, it won’t be through the hard-work and sweat of Black hands— Black Africa’s salvation will be delivered by others, and that’s yet another embarrassment in a race whose history is one long record of shame.

I wonder sometimes if Blackness is a curse, because it certainly feels like it.

I hate being black! I hate black culture, black speech, black features, blacks in general! I don’t care if I sound racsit, I’m tired of the onslaught of dumb, stereotypical, brainless hood rat wannabes! I only think black females are pretty if they look like white or Asian females( long hair, light skin, narrow nose, full and not thick lips). Black men are ugly period. I’d say Africa can go to hell, but it’s all ready there. It’s like, an invisible omnipotent force absolutely hates black people or something!

I fell in love with a smart white male who loves me for me, and our relationship is rules, and I have three beautiful half black half white daughters, but the only problem is I don’t like myself as a black female. I thought I was alone until I came to this site.

first of i’d like to say that its great to hear people speak with such brutal honesty! but a lot of what i’ve read here seems to stem from envy. i’m a black male from london people always tell me that i look like a black version of elvis presley!! and i get a lot of female attention from white girls and black girls even some of my white male friends call me pretty boy i also come from a wealthy family that is quite stuck up so for me being black has never been a problem i actually love it. i’m educated i keep away from stereotype brothers i love being different. its great when some ignorant white people meet me and try to stereotype me only to discover that i’m more knowledgeable and better educated than they are. not all white people have great lives. they too suffer as individuals. life is about individuality and if you carry yourself with dignity and integrity people will always recognise that. its a shame that many of our people choose to degrade themselves but we are responsible for ourselves as individuals. and concerning beauty not all white women look like marilyn monroe or cindy crawford the white media has done alot to depict eurocentric features as the best! but beauty is beauty i don’t see a lot of white women that look like iman, naomi,beyonce, aaliyah….etc. and as for black men being ugly i am a black man that has been called handsome pretty even beautiful by white people and they tell me i look mixed which is quite a bit of an insult because you don’t have to be mixed to look good. basically i’m black, rich and goodlooking. and that is’nt something that i would swap with any white person. also on a lasting note life is temporal i believe that my heavenly father my lord JESUS is leading me to eternal glory. white or black nothing here lasts forever. atleast we’re still alive and have the opportunity to grow and be strong as individuals. count your blessings being white is’nt all that white people commit suicide! suffer from depression! murder and rape. being black is not the real issue its mankind that you should be appalled ond dissapointed with take care God bless

Yep, I hate being black.
All the countries I want to go to, hate black people. It’s more unfair than hating myself really. But I always wanted to be non-black. When I was younger, I wanted to be white. I want that pale skin, light eyes, and long hair. Now, I want to be a beautiful Korean woman. I want to live in South Korea one day, but, heh, they hate black people there. If I wasn’t black, I probably wouldn’t have all these problems I have now.
I just wish I could at least LOOK a little whiter or Korean. I hate my brown skin, I hate my nose, oh my God, let’s not get on the many reasons why I hate my hair. I know I am a disgrace to many proud Black women, but, I am so sorry. I hate being black, and I hope that one day, I will accept it.

I am so disenchanted with my identity as a black girl its not even funny! I admire many more races, ESPECIALLY the Japanese. I grew up in the Americanime (American anime/manga/comic/whatever) subculture and from there my extreme passion for the Japanese(and many other cultures after that) was cultivated. it makes me sad to relate to the Afrocentric race, especially since NO ONE wants to be us! The Japanese(and most industrialized Asian countries) get eyelid surgeries to widen their eyes and avoid too much sunlight for fear of getting dark and in hope of getting accepted by the Caucasians they see in movies, do business with, converse with as they tour their country, the list goes on. I just KNOW that i would not be as welcomed just for my features and skin tone!:(
And it sucks to not just know, but FEEL that I may automatically not be welcomed in my FAVORITE country(and other non Afrocentric nations) because of my cursed natural born appearance and inherited reputation from the black race:(:(:(

As a 100% black African female, I probably embody everything you black self-haters despise, right? Worse, I’m Nigerian. Ha, now you REALLY hate my black ass.

Ah well, I guess life isn’t fair.

My take? Well, I don’t literally hate being Black. I’m just tired of it, ya know? Having to deal with the fact that lots of people think I have ugly features (I beg to disagree, but majority vote rules), or that I’m waaay down the totem pole of quality humans (even below African Americans) because I’m a “full-blooded” Negro from West Africa. People have asked me if I lived in hut when I was in Nigeria for the first 18 years of my life (lived in a city, but I’m in White man’s world so Africans are oogabooga N****rs for the most part). I’m supposed to have an attitude, near-retarded intelligence, horrible body odor and savage tendencies.

Let’s see….what else did I leave out? Oh yes! I’m supposed to be dead poor and grateful that I made my way to the Western world away from the “shithole that is Africa”. Well, I plan on getting the hell out once I get my degree. Jobs at African Banks are in bloom, but I guess nobody cares because Sub-saharan
Africa isn’t supposed to have Banks! Oh wait. I’m Nigerian, so scams and banks go hand in hand. haha.

I was so ready to go round the world and take in the sights of what humanity had to offer. I guess not – pretty much everyone hates Blacks by virtue of being Black so travel is a no-no. Even Black people hate themselves. Worse, everyone REALLY hates Nigerians.

Humanity is F***ked up. No need to preach about the gospel of love and kumbaya – we’ve heard it all before. Man will never change.

Hopefully, the NWO will take hold soon and Earth will become a mono-racial, mono-cultural bore. Win-win situation for everyone. Black haters will never have to see Black people again, and lovers will be pleased with absence of hate. Yay!

Better still, 2012 could turn out to be reality and we stupid humans can finally die off. Now THAT will be great.

Funny enough, I’m not angry at you, nor any one of your brethren in this web page.

Humanity IS stupid. We waste time obsessing over the silliest things, like what race does what, and how uncivilized/civilized another race is, or how pretty one race is. It’s as if we’re living in a Tolkien matrix or some other s**t.

Heck, people choose life partners and have children based on these stupid ideologies (huh?).

Sad that much of the world really does think like this (whites, blacks, asians, etc), and unfortunately, we blacks just find ourselves the worst hit of all punching bags.

I did not mean it when I stated that the human race would die off (ah…..well, sometimes I still think this, but it’s frustration).

Just because some African Americans may make your race look bad, that’s NOT your true culture. Think of Jamaica, Africa, or Egypt! Yes..

Don’t hate your differences because other (stupid) people do. Love it because you are something amazing. I wish I could study you!!

I too hate being black.

I don’t care about white racism. I don’t care about making black people look good, dispelling stereotypes or advancing the cause of racial uplift. I don’t care what others think of me or if they look down on me for being black. I don’t care if they hate me or if I’m not welcome in their countries. What’s in South Korea? The demilitarized zone between it and that hell hole run by Kim Jong-Il and his dead dad? After all, some people hate Americans. Some people hate atheists. Some people look down on sexual women. But I don’t care.

But I do hate being black.

I hate it because of other black people. They are such a disgrace. They can’t run a country, they had no written language, their spoken languages have no abstract concepts like “the past”. They have no same language dictionaries because their languages aren’t written and all the speakers of the language know all the words. They have no inventions and no science. They make excuses about slavery, colonialism, environment etc. but Australia was a dumping ground for prisoners that became a democratic republic in 100 years, slavery existed in every society (Arabs enslaved the British in the 17th century), Japan has no natural resources, the Eskimos for crying out loud are more advanced than Africans even though they have no raw materials except dead fish and snow.

The average black IQ is 85 in the US and 70 in Africa. It’s higher in the US because of miscegenation. This IQ is probably 80% heritable.

Who are our leaders? Malcolm X was a common thug and pimp who disrespected every woman he came into contact with, beating his white girlfriend “to keep her in line” and making her support him financially, turning a promising sheltered black girl into a prostitute, and treating his wife like a subordinate slave. The black Panthers are all a bunch of thugs and drug addicts. There are some exceptions but that’s what they are.

During Black History Month they always parade the same few people, MLK, Rosa Parks, that’s because there aren’t that many. No philosophers, no really great minds. Where’s the black Immanuel Kant or Ayn Rand?

I hate how people lie and say black people invented peanut butter (that’s a recipe not an invention), the traffic light, the ball point pen, these are lies and not particularly impressive ones either.

Then there’s everyday blacks. They’re all liberals who hate free speech. They are self-righteous about the history of oppression. They’re selfish because they promote double standards where they can insult others and others can’t insult them. Back before I became racist and was a lamestream conservative I made this totally innocuous comment to a group of black women:

“racism is virtually non-existent in America”.

They became infuriated and I was excoriated and treated very badly. That’s when I knew that black people are usually unwilling to listen to other points of view no matter how innocent and well-meaning those viewpoints are.

Black people will do anything to protect their self-esteem even if it means lying to children. Their view of history is designed to make them feel holier than thou. They say there’s no such thing as race because all races share 99.9% of the same DNA but humans and chimps share 98% of the same DNA! And men and women share 99.998% of the same DNA. And they say well look at mulattos and other mixed races they can’t be categorized. But that’s like saying there’s no such thing as good or evil because of things like the death penalty and euthanasia and abortion that can’t be categorized. Or there’s no such thing as red and white because of pink. But when you say this to them they become very hostile.

Black activists today are so full of crap. They want to turn the US into a third world hell hole. They want to uproot free speech. They use feminists and women by having them tag along and act like water carriers. They say the US is racist, sexist and homophobic when everyone knows they only care about racism and only use women and gays to make the case against the US seem greater. If they’re so concerned with sexism why don’t they go after rappers or public figures like Ann Coulter.

Black people are so rude and aggressive. I can’t stand to be around them. They stress me out a lot and make me bite my nails, pick my skin, scratch my legs because I’m so intimidated , nervous, and outraged. I hate to watch those Reality Shows like Flavor of Love with those nasty black women ripping each other to shreds.

If I was white I would be a white nationalist, move to a white neighborhood (which I plan to do anyway) and just be racist. I will never marry a black man. If a white man doesn’t want to marry me I just won’t get married at all. I’ll just go to a sperm bank and get artificially inseminated with white DNA. I won’t let my children hang out with black peers or marry one. I will do like what black Brazilians do and bleach my family line. Brazilians are already better off, they look better, they are more accepted in their society, and they are much less aggressive. Since white people are willing to do things like discriminate against themselves, adopt Haitian babies, and make themselves a minority group why don’t they just do the only sensible thing needed and bleach us out?

Most of the time I want to be alone. For most blacks this is WAY out of the norm and they never let me forget it. Being a loner isn’t the problem here, I enjoy it. As a loner my standards for anyone that I spend time with is high. The person must be honest, kind, respectful and themselves. Most blacks do not fit into those categories (except the last one). I refuse to lower my standards for friendship. Therefore, I am alone. I have been ridiculed and laughed at for being myself, by my own people. I have never gotten this type of treatment from whites or Hispanics.
As a whole black people suck, horribly. They are loud, surly, and atrocious. I hate to speak this way about my own people but most blacks are everything that I despise.
The problem with black people is that they expect every black person to act the same way and when you don’t, they treat you like a monster. Followers don’t make history, leaders do. Why don’t blacks understand that being different and not following the herd is the best way to save us. When we acknowledge our own responsibility and stop playing the race card we could truly be great. Unfortunately, this will never happen. I honestly can’t stand black people. I want to be proud of my heritage but other blacks make it hard to want to accept my race. Sometimes it makes me want to cry, knowing that the entire black race will destroy itself without the help of eugenics and other population control plans. I want to be an other race but black. It upsets me to no end to realize that as a black woman I am usually seen as inferior to women of other races. I’m tired of people expecting the worse from me, expecting me to have a negative attitude and a loud mouth. Damn all the black people that live up to their stereotypes. I just want to live in peace, is that too much to ask?

From a white, blonde, blue eyed girl from scandinavia.

To all you black people who hate being black – I think how you come to see yourself also depends a lot on where you live and grew up.

Here being afro-american is a hit – most stores want diversity in their staff and prefers to hire a mix of races – blacks, chinese, arabian etc etc.

Also all the african women I know are both popular and sophisticated – most people I know see them as strong independent women (and extra interesting because many of them have an exiting pasts and different roots than the typical scandinavian girl) and many men here prefer dark women and dark skin is also a hit with the men. I don’t see the stereo types you are talking about in scandinavia – only in american movies.

The picture I get in my mind when I hear the word “black person” is first of all Neytiri from Avatar (I know she is fiction – but her strong personality, the fact that she is in touch with nature and true to her roots are all traits i see in Black women) also who comes to mind is Ida Corr, Oprah, Obama etc + great culture = preserved wildlife and savannas, beautiful nature, genuine warm people, and least but not last the tight bond I think mostly black families have with each other.

And I know about Aids and poverty but in my opinion thats not what being a black is all about, just a phase the Country is going through.

if being white were so great why do white women steal our hair style, inject foreign toxic substances into their lips, get fake asses. have polluted the world whereever they have gone. brigning false fake white jesues and usurping the religion of every continent and they invades. i hope that bin ladne kick all of their lying sorry asses. any black man who goes off to fight the white man war only to return home to teabaggeing racists republicans deserve to be shot dead in whatever country they are fighting. remember once you go black you never go back seen many a white penis (am a nurse) in my lifetime, never met a single one i would allow to touch me. i love my fine, fine fine, balck men. i don’t like the behavior of may of my people but i still love them. all of you people who are on here hating yourself, and wanting biracial kids just know this biracial kids have a higher incidence of heart disease, perhap it’s the heart longing to belong.

so i just hate being black only because no one finds black people as attractive as other races. every one always thinks a black male has to be a thug or ghetto. black women just want to be treating bad, at least when they are young, and if you don’t act like a thug then they don’t want to date you. then if you try to date outside your race everyone thinks your a sell out. not only that, they don’t find you as appealing and successful as other males in other races. i look latino, however my nose and lips give away my blackness. lol i’m totally getting plastic surgery and erasing my ethinicity. i’ll be more confident, and no one will attach me to blackness, at least not african american blackness.

I used to hate being black. I am bi-racial but most people think I am pure black. I grew up raised by my white mother in a red-neck suburban town. Of course growing up different from my friends and family was tough, brutal I might say. Plus, the media doesn’t make it any better.I started relaxing my hair, I used to try to wear sunscreen to keep my skin as light as possible. In high school I felt insecure because all my white girlfriends were dating no one would ask me out. There was little overt racism. But somehow that there was a wall between me and the people around me. The white dudes in school would talk to me even flirt, but NEVER make a move as far as anything romantic. I wondered what was wrong with me, why was I so unlikeable? I struggled with those feelings of inferiority everyday and felt so alone.

Through a lot of struggling I moved away to San Francisco and went to college and things changed. Boys finally started approaching me. My first love affair was with an Asian. I am now currently dating a white guy, who is the sweetest on the earth. He loves me no matter what. I straighten my hair but he often says I would look just as hot bald or with an afro. Sometimes I still struggle with insecurity. Whenever I tell my bf I am ugly he tells me I am crazy. I notice most black girls here go natural and most people say I would look good with natural kinky hair too. It is a whole different culture from small-town America. Diversity is celebrated.

And who said there are no black intellectuals? Come on! Richard Wright, Langston Hughes, Frederick Douglas, George Washington Carver! And intelligence is not just books. The musical genius of blacks is not only a permanent part of American culture it is a global phenomenon. My boyfriend plays jazz in a band full of other white dudes and I bet you any of them would love to be black simply because they think its cool. A lot of white guys are like that. So many in Asian countries love hip hop music and imitating 80′s B-Boy style. We have physical intelligence in sports. I learned in Psychology there are different types of intelligence and none of them are inferior to the other. So plainly blacks do excel where other races don’t.

So, don’t buy all the BULLSHIT that the white hegemony feeds you about blacks being inferior.

So in short, I’m proud to be black. I rock it.

the reason why people hate being black is because of how the world views you and how it effects every part of there lives.. i cant do anything with out my race affecting it.. i just want to be seen as a person and not a color AND PEOPLE CANT FUCKING UNDERSTAND THAT KEY PART.. how would you feel if you were hated EVERYWHERE.. i cant even go to another country without worrying what the people will do/say to me.. and whats even worst is ..we didnt do anything to no one. we didnt go to america and steal land from the native americans, we didnt go to japan and bomb it (hiroshima), we didnt go africa and rape the land and make slaves,i didnt go to australian and degrade the aborignals.. i didnt go to the middle east claim were fighting terrorism when we really want OIL… its like being born punished when you didnt commit the crime.. now i have to watch my every movement so i can prove not to be that angry black woman who steals eats chicken and is a whore who doesnt know who her baby daddy is.. i have to be passive to prove that point..i cant ever fight for myself or do anything with out being seen as a stereotype..and thats they key thing of how it EFFECTS YOU..and on top of that everyone sees their self on top of us.. its like OH LIFE IS HARD BUT THANK GOD WE’RE NOT BLACK.. and that fucking SUCKS..if there was equality in life.. then people wouldnt hate being black or being whatever or being a woman or being gay.. IF THERE WAS NO INEQUALITY everyone would be happy who with they are.

I. Hate. Being. Black. Period. I am so ashamed of my race….I don’t know where to start.

My message is short. I cannot even properly concive in words the magnitude of my content for this cursed ethnicity of people.

Being black is……horrible.

I wish I could be reborn again, and hopefully God/Buddah/Allah/Vinshu/Whatever won’t make the mistake of making me Negro twice!

What is wrong with you people? I would never say this, but in your case-I wish it were true & I wish someone would take you and put you out of your “misery”-every single one of you who hates themself. The things you are saying about your own races (white, black, Indian, so far) and GENDER. My God, you people should not be allowed to breed. It scares me and saddens me that people like you even exist AND actually have kids sheesh.

Make a practice of going to african arts festivals around the country. be involved or form a black history club that studies ancient black world wide history. And invite nationally known afro-centric or pro black speakers to lecture. It will increase pride in blackness. It does for me.

In addition, read, study on the contributions of blacks in history! Blacks did create monuments – look at the Egyptian pyramids! Plus, the ancient dravidians & indo-aryans of the Indian subcontinent! The impact that black ancestors had on ancient China, Japan & the Arabian peninsula! The fact that these great creative people are classified by so-called intelligent white scientists as ‘caucasian’ is misleading. Read up on Malcolm X & Dr. Frances Cress-Welsing regarding their opinions on these findings. Search through the internet & word of mouth on positive african-Americans that publicly lecture & discuss these facts in N.Y., Atlanta, etc. Go to black owned book shops! I promise you won’t feel ashamed/insecure about being black.

Sometimes, admittedly I hate being black. There are some other black people who I cannot stand because of the way they talk and show off. They always act like they know everything and think that all black people are alike as well as other races.

I have dealt with some ignorant black people at my last job. I had to get out of there because of the harassment, ridicule, disrespect, and mind games.

It is people like them the main reason why successful black people (like myself) do have a bad reputation.

To be honest, black people who bleached or make themselves lighter may get treated worse.

For example, the late King of Pop Michael Jackson was not treated any better when he turned lighter. He was pretty much considered a freak by the media.

I like the story comment from Ay-O.

If you are somewhere unwanted and unappreciated because of who you are, you probably should leave and go somewhere diverse people are located.

Get away from people who discriminate and remind you of your skin color, race, etc. It would be fair to be around people who judge you based on your character.

I’m black (female) and I ask the universe everyday why I was born a black person. I wonder what I did in my past where I merited being a black person. I wouldn’t want to be bi-racial because that would still be somewhat black, but I would prefer to be another race.
