What would you like me to say?So, what is the value of your statement, then? Do you just want everyone to know you’re aggrieved? If we wouldn’t understand, then how are we supposed to try to make things better? That attitude is kind of a passive aggressive cop out.
Where is the value in my statement?
Do you want me to tell you about the time I was an Ensign and a senior officer told me that I was only there because of affirmative action? NVM the fact I had a Masters Degree from a good school with a 4.0 GPA.
Or the time the wardroom made a call sign about me that was a ridiculous mockery of my culture?
But what do I get to say in those situations? Nothing, cause if I complain about the wardroom I look like the bad guy.
If I said anything about that senior officer I would get outcast and told I’m being insensitive.
So that leaves me no option but to just suck it up and move on.
Those are just two actual incidents that didn’t even begin to explain my actual experience.
but I’m sure this post is going to cause people to run to the defense of this organization and say it was taken out of context, it’s not actual racism, or I’m being insensitive.
