What’s a topic or issue about which you’ve changed your mind? Oftentimes, we consider “clapping back” as a way to defend verbal attacks. I used to feel that way until I got a little older. When someone is ignorant enough to come at you, for absolutely no reason at all…other than to get a rise…
Not Among Them
Tell us about a time when you felt out of place. In 2017, I did the unthinkable, and defended myself against my ex. He had become physically abusive, so I shot him in the neck. He survived, fortunately, my father taught me how to fight and handle a gun. However, going through the criminal justice…
