"Why does everything have to be about race" good question, ask the white colonists

You can't dissociate from history "because it was a long time ago", when it literally is the reason power dynamics work the way they do now.

As someone who dealt with extreme oppression most of my life simply for the crime of being born different and has suffered and grown much from their experience, it would appear to me that you are the one that can't let go and I would recommend doing so for the sake of your own happiness and peace of mind. I use the past to learn from, the present to live in and the future to fight for and couldn't care less about the rest unless it affects me or someone I care about regardless of race. I honestly don't care what race you are or what struggles you deal with, nor do I care about the world around me unless it suits my wants and needs. I will simply help those I care for or feel deserve it and leave the rest behind. Depending on the way you treat me you can either be my friend, my enemy or even one of my personal slaves. I find living this way makes me feel much better. This is only advice based on my personal experience so please feel free to take it or leave it.
