Oh June this is beautiful! So powerful. So poignant. So relateable to me on one level and yet I carry the privilege of white skin. I look forward to reading more from you here. So lovely to read your words again my lovely xx
Oh Kim, thank you. I was reading about Venezuelans who are self-deporting due to Trump and now I feel stupid writing about this. It's such a 1st world problem. I have a home. I'm privileged.
I can relate - I grew up in South Africa - during apartheid where the racial lines were clearly delineated, being brown was neither here nor there. So we mainly stuck to our community. I guess I still don’t belong to one country or culture but more a mix of cultures - South Asian, African and American - now I tend to think it’s a good thing :)
Hey Yana, I had no idea. So you're also a third culture kid 😊 yep, it's a good thing but, in my case, the childhood trauma is huge. Still working on it.

This is so heartbreaking and beautiful and just I have no words.
You may have no friends in Germany but you have one cheering you on always from Canada

Your struggle isn’t less because others struggle differently or even more. What you went through is always valid
