We need to separate individual problems and societal problems better.
“Racism isn’t as prevalent as it used to be.”
I always had a visceral reaction to that comment.
I follow a few black content creators that spew this rhetoric. And even though I always disagreed with it, I’m starting to understand why they say this.

When you’re a black girl like me that decides to hop on SJW Twitter every three seconds, you’ll get radicalized and galvanized. You’ll get radicalized so much that you feel as if the world is racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist, etc.
