i really have spent *a lot* of time thinking about myself in relation to the label ‘person of colour’ ever since the recent discussions. 

I have no conclusions or anything. 

But that ask I answered has a lot of what has been going around in my mind. 

At this point, I’m fairly certain I’m not harming or oppressing anyone by thinking I’m a poc. 

But I’m also not sure how much it matters that I call myself one or not – to me that is – because if it does come out or someone (even just one) person tells me they are harmed or oppressed by me IDing this way, I’ll stop. My feelings < harming someone. 

(although, it really does make certain things easier and I much prefer using it over non-white)

idk. 

More thinking to be thought on this matter.
