[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]… do you ever think you should move to Europe to “go back where you came from”? I have started to feel this way. I feel like no matter how much I work to be inclusive and tolerant, there’s no getting around the fact that my presence as a white person in North America is the result of colonization, slavery, and racism. All things I fundamentally oppose. Sometimes I think it would be better for everyone, including me, if I returned with my family to my ancestral roots (Germany or Norway). Not just because I feel the US really belongs to Native people and the descendants of enslaved people who built the country, but because I wonder if living where my family lived for thousands of years before immigrating to the US in the early 20th century would make me feel like I belonged more. I just feel like I’m not supposed to be here. It wasn’t my choice to come but maybe it could be my choice to leave. Does anyone else feel this way?[/quote] Your white guilt complex is stunning. And sad. How did you become so guilt-ridden? [/quote]
