I think it's really brave of you to admit that you used to be racist and have since tried to make amends. I'm wondering, can you tell me more about the changes you've made since?

Adrenmydndelf Posted January 5, 2022 Author Share Posted January 5, 2022 Ive tried to apoligize and change my perspective on people in general by making freinds and overall being more exepting but I still feel a strong guilt and was hoping to learn how to be a better person in this regard MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsoon Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Hey there, It's really good to hear that you've apologised and changed your perspective. It's really hard to own up to racism and apologise, and I think it's amazing that you've been able to do this. I'm wondering, do you think there's anything else you could be doing to make progress?

Monsoon Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Hey, That's okay. To be honest, it sounds like you're doing plenty at the moment. I'm wondering, how would you say your thoughts and feelings have changed towards the groups of people you used to be racist towards?
