Dear White Liberals,
Hiya. asiangrrlMN here. It’s time we had a frank discussion about race. My esteemed black overlady, ABL, has been embroiled in some racialistic brouhahas over at the wild, woolly blog known as Balloon Juice. I have stayed out of it for the most part because I’ve given up on race-related threads at Balloon Juice, and that, frankly, is part of the reason I’m writing this post.
I hate talking about race in mixed company. And, by mixed, I mean with white people I don’t know very well. It’s draining and tiring and it can make me feel crazy. I can do that on my own, thank you very much. I don’t need that from my interactions. But, sometimes, I feel the need to speak out. Now is one of those times. So, grab your favorite beverage and relax because you’re going to be reading for quite some time.
