I have a hard time talking about how my ethnicity (75% Eastern European, 25% some kind of brown that I can't place on a map because my family is full of secrets and lies, for those who aren't aware), affects my life, because of the internal "it's not like you face real problems, no one's harassing you on the street for your skin color" pressure.

And occasionally that pressure is put on me externally by people who want to beat me at an Oppression Olympics game I didn't consent to compete in.
