...See more tw // mentions of h0m0ph0b1a , r4c1sm , and religion hello , i ‘ m a 16 year old black demigirl — but i come from a conservative , black evangelical family from the south i ‘ ve been feeling so conflicted with myself for a while now , since 2021 when i began to become more conscious and self aware with my black identity my grandma is a very religious pastor in the christian faith and also rooted in black conservatism — i want to tell her soo badly that conservatism is rooted in lots of bigotry yet i know she ‘ s far off from even listening to what i have to say . often times i would find myself having panic attacks ( excuse me if im using the wrong term !! ) during september of last year because of because of a lot of end time theories — along with the euphrates river beginning to dry , a lot of that sent me into a spiral and i would often times have to calm my breathing because it was so nerve wracking thankfully my mom who is a psychologist was able to support me a tiny bit , but i feel as if she ‘ s still being manipulated by my grandma fast forward many months — i ‘ m still struggling with my grandma ‘ s bigotry , the anxiety of end times theology , my faith , and myself as a black demigirl i ‘ d really appreciate some advice as of now , tysm 4 reading :)
