Hi Sarah, I'm not sure that many black people hate you for being white... Probably some do, but these days it seems there is almost more self-hating among whites on the left than white hating among blacks. Although I admit to having very little idea about how much actual white hating there is among BIPOC, to use a horrible acronym. I live in BC, on the west side of Kelowna, which was largely indiginous until a bridge was built across the lake. It's a little like living in Palestine... the west side was actually called Westbank until it was recently renamed. There is some tension with the local people, but this is Canada, it is almost all passive aggressive. The indiginous people of the "Westbank nation" are one of the wealthiest first nation groups in Canada, due to Kelowna's recent growth. They aren't about to start car bombing anyone. My kids have plenty of indiginous friends, mostly you wouldn't really be able to tell. They aren't particularly "coloured".
