So well written. This reminded me a lot of my childhood and life - the knowing that I wasn’t really a man because men can’t be raped. The shame and depression. For me it was years long sexual abuse from my step father and there are multiple times in my life where the fallout from those years nearly destroyed my life…

You know this site and writers on it have had no issue bashing the democratic party but let’s be clear, there is a place in it for people of color to promote and talk about the issues that are important to them and other people of color.
