There's not one brick on top that they're knocking the wall down.

It is the Baldwin thing.

When he says in one of his essays, black people don't want to be betrayed by too much helping.

I never quite got that until this moment where I feel convicted by that, that I am betrayed in my own self because I may have hoped more than I should.

Okay, but isn't it weird?

I think you were saying the same thing.

Doesn't it feel a bit liberating?

It feels liberating for me that the truth has come out.

I don't believe it's just sort of lifting the veil.

I believe the mask is off.

And I think the mask is off for a certain degree.

I believe full transparency right now.

And it gives me the freedom.

actually to lean into my blackness as hard and as much as I want to lean into it.

I don't have to like, you know, sort of go, well, you know, white people, I just say it out loud, white people are doing this.

You know what I mean?

And so I feel this freedom now to just as much as they have

taking the mask off.

So have I taken the mask off with politeness, right?
