I know how it ends.
I was reading up on her and I didn't realize that as a child she was ridiculed and experienced racism to the point where she had to change schools. So this is something that's been a constant struggle for her even ever since she was a little girl. That for me, I thought, just being a woman and a person of color and having experienced racism growing up, it really scars you and it really traumatizes you. And those scars do irreparable damage. And the idea that she overcame all that to be the star that she was ... I have so much admiration. During that time there wasn't really self-help. There wasn’t was psychology, there wasn't this kind of wokeness that you could turn to and talk to somebody about being progressive or open-minded.
And while I think it is great to be optimistic and hopeful and to continue your perseverance as a person in what you're doing, there is another part of me that doesn't actually know when that change is going to happen and you see signs of it. And to have Ryan do something like this felt like it was really challenging my belief system. I was not thinking that this would be possible.
