I am as white as the day is long. I have never set foot outside of the south. I'm just starting Settlers rn and it is very insightful. It does, however, have me afraid of my own ignorance. I'm the only person from my neck of the woods that I would even call somewhat "progressive", but still. I am aware I was raised in privilege and surrounded by hate. (I even attended a segregated school for many years as a child...) I've always been pretty proud of how far I've come, but I feel like I still probably have some things ingrained in me that need to be smashed up. Recommendations welcome for all kinds of topics. I like to read and learn from whatever is put in front of me.

PS I would love any LGBT material. I do not think I am entirely a straight man, and I struggle with internalized homophobia often.
