Uncomfortable

Obviously, race is the elephant in the room, and we all understand that, but unless it is talked about, constantly, it's not going to get better if people get bored. "Oh, is it that again? They're pulling the race card again. Why do we have to talk about that?" Well, because it's uncomfortable, and there has to be an uncomfortable element in the discourse for anything to change. Whether it's the LGBT movement, women's suffrage, race, it doesn't matter. People have to be made to feel uncomfortable, and especially white people because we're comfortable. We still have no clue of what being born white means.
