This hurts. It’s happened all my life. I’m a black 21 year old guy. I was adopted before i was even 6 months old. My birth mother had a drug issue and i was lucky i wasn’t born addicted. I was lucky to be given up for a better life and not the life they were given. I’m blessed with the family i have now. People i call mom and dad and my brother and sisters. I love them to death. But people don’t seem to see it this way. My family is white. I’m black. My whole life i’ve been told i’m a fake black kid or i’m not “really black” because i live with white people. This shit hurts me everytime. And it hurts even more because the ONLY ppl i’ve ever heard that from are people who LOOK LIKE ME. People who are MY skin color. People who are black. My own race. My own people. They’ve shut me out my whole fucking life and it hurts so bad and just because of who my family is? It stopped for a while i hadn’t heard anything for years. Until today. I was told that they would never hangout with me because i “dress like a white person” because i have white parents. I was told that I’d never experience what black people actually experience and that I have white privilege. I was told i can’t complain about my life because i live the perfect life because i live with white people. All of this was said to me by a black person. Why can’t i just be accepted. It’s not like i asked to be adopted. I’m so tired of this it really makes me not want to live anymore, it’s embarrassing and it hurts so bad. And they are wrong. I HAVE been discriminated against on multiple occasions bc of my skin color, and that hurt too. Idk what to do and would love advice.
