I'm genderqueer, Pagan, and a bunch of other things that Trumplestiltskin hates.
While I look white at a casual glance, I'm more mixed; and culturally, I don't really think like a white person. Violence against people of color still alarms me in ways that just don't bother most people. They don't see it as a threat to their personal survival. I do.
It's hard to fix, though. A backlash swing can have devastating momentum.
