A Different Future

If an anti-racist world exists, I would not have to be turned to the side after waiting 20 minutes at the car service office for a white family to take the first car available. I would not have to look twice as hard for a job that would be easily given to another person, even if I am more qualified. I would not be followed in a store or be seen as a person who may not afford something. I wouldn’t worry so much for my brothers being out at night and not coming home or getting injured because of their skin color. Women working hard would have the same opportunity to move up and get promotions. I would wake to go to class and get on the public transport without everyone staring to watch what I will pull out my pocket or my bag. I would be treated like a normal person and because of the anti-racist world I won’t be stared at. I think my job would be filled with more smart and capable women, with more women in power.
