I simply responded to your comment. Nothing more, nothing less. Thank you for pointing out that when I write an article it is my opinion, and not, as you suggested "defining it for everyone else." I am a Black woman and will always speak from my perspective and personal experience. I can no more speak for a White man in American than you can dictate what I can and cannot say as a Black woman. We are all operating from our own journeys and I can always appreciate a respectful exchange. Thank you for engaging in a meaningful way.
