Develop & strengthen friendships in real life too. There's no substitute for dear friends who have each others' backs. Maybe reach out through a meet up group or a local church or whatever makes you comfortable. It doesn't necessarily have to be to talk about race issues. It can be anything you most enjoy. Just my two cents for what it's worth. You rock brer cat. If you lived in my neighborhood I'd probably bring you a cake or something just for all your cool posts!
