I’m afraid to try and make friend with other races because i’m from the south(u.s.) and there is not much diversity here. Mainly white people. I’m white. I’m more nervous to make friends with native american people, black people. I’m afraid I will be looked down on, not trusted, not taken seriously and overall just not accepted. I’m afraid of being rejected because of my race. I wish I didn’t feel this nervous. I really want to be friends with everyone, i’m just worried that because i’m white, people will look at me differently, like i’m already racist, because i’m white.. Does my fear of confronting someone based on race make me racist? I really hope not, it’s not a hate, it’s a fear and uncertainty. I’m nervous around people in general, white or whatever, but different races are even harder for me. I’m afraid of being judged negatively by another race.
