in this case, you are.

i think you must be a part of that society thats treated you from  
birth as a second class citizen. economically, socially etc. I  
remember having friends whose parents wouldn't let me come into their  
house because i was black.... the town i come from is STILL segregated  
into black and white communities, even though nobody talks about it.  
far as i can tell it could be that way forever.
you'll never understand what that is like. i dont think you can. i  
know i am not the one to be able to articulate it in words.


in struggle,
Auriea.
