I hate being a women of color. It is so hard for others to raise above the stereotypes and I feel like I am always fighting for people to see that I am above what they see. I am the only black women in my office and I get tired of the snide comments like I never pegged you for the quiet type, or always being asked about ethnic music and my hair. I just want to work and without being micromanaged. I'm over social media and the constant race wars. I'm over it all. its 2018 and instead of being in a place where racism no longer exist its just resurfacing.
