I love that people are writing on Substack about reclaiming their identity.

I found Rainier’s post particularly touching — and painful — to read.

We’ve all lost so much of who we are in the “melting pot” of American white culture - brown, white, and in-between.

Many of us are asking the question: Who am I - really?

WHO AM I. Because I don’t know. Because now it is my job to tell my own mother who she is and then I’ll get to name myself that as well. After too many hours I force my way outside and wait for the wind to blow whispers into my ears. Its yet again another language I was born to learn and never taught. But I am listening.
