Re: half_vulcan on Live journal I am not anon

if perhaps I am a racist and I am a person of color.

White supremacy isn't just for white people. It's a jealous and demanding god if you will, and it takes its worshippers by stealth.

Creoles are languages. Haitian Creole is a language. I won't go into it with you now, to any detail, but you may wish to look at Bastard Tongues for a rough overview.

If you are not already familiar with the terms 'internalized racism' and micro-assaults, you may wish to look into them. They may be helpful. They may not.

Many people are the children of people for whom it was illegal to marry. Even so, they managed. You're probably not the first person whose family/ies' wealth cushioned them from dealing with racism. Money can help. Money can be very useful.

Long life and good health to you.
