every single day i feel immense sadness about racism. i've felt this way my whole life, even though i've never had a racist incident ever (excluding videogames). i just feel anxious because i feel like the day will come where something happens to me. i'm shy, an introvert and a slim girl and i really can't stand up for myself at all, i was bullied in high school - not for my race, just for being weird.

is there anything i can do to stop fearing it so much?
