(Another piece of dialogue. I’m not clear on the context.)
-You should come to a meeting.
-I’m not sure I’d know what to say.
-Just come, listen. You don’t have to speak if you don’t want to, but you probably will. I hardly ever know what I’m going to say, but once I hear other people share, something always comes up. Most of us live lives rich with shame about race.
