I was raised in a typical white conservative Christian family. I also had to educate myself & learn & grow on my own. It’s hard, espec when your family doesn’t support you, but it’s worth it to know that you’re doing the best you can to be a good person.

I think being self-aware and truthful about this kind of thing, even feeling conscious regret over past misconceptions, is totally worthwhile. I wanna stay humble enough to recognize that growth is—should be—a lifelong process, not just in others but also myself
