Facing the Uncomfortable Truth: How Racism Affects Personal Relationships

LeRon Barton, a man of color, shares his journey of self-discovery and acceptance. 🎎 He talks about how his circle of friends has changed over the years, from a diverse group to a more homogenous one.

LeRon's story is not just about the change in his social circle, but also about his personal growth and understanding of his own identity. 🐉 He emphasizes the importance of his race and culture, stating that it's central to who he is.

LeRon's work is primarily focused on dismantling the system of racism, white supremacy, and anti-blackness. He is unapologetic about his mission and is okay with losing friends who can't accept his truth. 🏮

He may miss out on happy hours and parties, but he's content knowing he's living his truth and fighting for a cause he deeply believes in.

LeRon's story is a powerful reminder that it's better to be rejected for who you are than to be accepted for who you're not.
