This is a very nicely told, but ultimately very sad tale, Caro. I wish I had your faith. But when you have people who are considered intellectuals or are thought as serious writers, some of whom are on this platform, claim that racism doesn’t exist then I can only fear the worse

Anyway, thanks again for this story 🙂

Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your perspective, Dan. It's discouraging when intellectuals or serious writers deny racism. I think it’s important to remember that denial or ignorance of racism does not make it any less real or impactful. Talking, learning, and understanding can help us create a more inclusive society by ending harmful beliefs. I wrote my story to bring attention to racism and encourage readers to think about making a difference.
