Because I live in the constant hope that someone just might, maybe just one, might re-examine their reflexive responses to anything that involves issues of race. That any story which includes POC feeling they have been victims of racism is a hoax. That while it is not possible to ever expect white people to understand on anything more than an intellectual basis what living as a POC is like, I hope some would not dismiss their concerns, their pain, their worldview as a fake and a hoax. So I present this proof that those statements I listed were wrong. 100% wrong. And that whatever preconceived notions led those people, who I carefully did not name, to make those statements might have a brief moment of thoughtfulness the next time an issue tied to race comes up
