You’ve probably never thought of that. Nothing United is doing in any way diminishes your personal narrative or your accomplishment which itself is exemplary. Nothing.
They’re saying that if you’re not a white male, we’re going to make it easier for you.
What I’m trying to say, my whiteness had nothing to do with it.
If you’re somehow saying that because someone is BIPOC then they must be poor, nice job. Really helps a community out when people continually assume they’re poor or victims, incapable of providing for themselves.
Also I guess all those women out there are really struggling as well.
I would be all hands on deck for initiatives for POOR communities. Not blanket racist or ethnic policies
