(18,124 posts)on the feeling of being made TO FEEL LIKE a diffent liberal(DEMOCRAT)....one thing I got out of american christianity is "yes you are a christian, but you're still different because of your skin color. Same with liberals(DEMOCRATS).......,they might see us as democrats who vote liberal but they see PoC the same way as I found in the christian churche(s). I expect it from the RW, yet have been disheartened by so-called liberals too many times to trust them to EVER HAVE MY BACK on anything, Especially if their entitled position as american citizens gets threatened by too many brown people wanting the same equal treatment. I will vote, on principle, for the eventual Democratic Party nominee but them really "having my back"? I have never been fooled by that question. PoC have not gained true equality in this nation precisely because NO ONE has had our back. The only reason we've survived this long in this nation is for no other reason except PoC looking out for each other.
