Politics and religion are two subjects I try not to speak on. Mostly because my values in those areas don’t equate with the preconceived assumptions people make based on what I am. I am both fortunate and unfortunate enough to live in a time where being a gay, black, woman of color can benefit or hurt me depending on where I am or who I’m in the company of. This is proven by the fact that every Saturday my wife and I drive by several homes that proudly wave their confederate flag on their property. One such house is less than a stone's throw from my own.
