Speaking Your Truth: Why Discussing Race Shouldn't Be Softened - A Personal Journey

LeRon Barton, a voice of empowerment and truth, shares his journey with us. He speaks to the racialized peoples, particularly the black community, about the importance of speaking up about race. 🌏

He acknowledges a harsh reality - the majority of white people tend to fade out when the conversation turns to race. It's an uncomfortable truth, but it's a part of the American narrative. 🇺🇸

LeRon urges us not to be ashamed of this, not to soften our messages or pad our experiences to keep the peace. He warns against the disservice we do to ourselves when we don't tell our truth. 🗣️

When we dilute our experiences, we're not just lying to others, we're lying to ourselves. We're not accurately portraying our struggles, our triumphs, our realities.

LeRon's message is clear - don't pad your story or your experiences just to avoid offending others. Your truth is your power. Embrace it.
