Questions for discussion and reflection:

• Did you know that racism isn’t just carried out by non-people-of-color, but sometimes by Black people too? How do you think that would make you feel—that even some people that look like you treat you as “other?”

• Have you had experiences in your country where people that looked like you treated you differently that you may not have picked up on at the time, but now looking back, it was probably racism?

• If you’re white and have traveled, have you thought about how different your experience probably was from someone with darker skin?
