13. do you have white guilt?
14. what are white schools like? pretty much everyone at my school is a poc so i really have no idea
15. if you& #39;re in college/plan on going to college - do you go to an hbcu (historically black college/university) or did you ever/are you considering one?
16. piggybacking off the last question - if you do go to an hbcu, is it ever awkward? & #39;cause those schools have large black student populations
17. did you ever say the n word when you were younger, not knowing what it meant? do you still feel bad about it?
18. does it bother you when other white people try to debate black issues with black people? do you ever step in?
19. for my alt/punk ppl out there - when you first heard about how much racism there is in the alt/punk scene and how terribly we& #39;re treated at shows and stuff, were you shocked?
