TELL US: How do you encounter racism?

JavaScript isn't enabled in your browser, so this file can't be opened. Enable and reload.

We've heard from many readers that they just don't get it. They don't see racism, and they don't think it exists beyond a few high-profile incidents.

To bridge what seems to be a wide gap in community experiences, we are inviting readers to share their personal stories. If you would be willing to share your perspective for publication, please fill out the form below.

Everyone is an expert about their own experience, and there is power in sharing those experiences with others. Don't feel you need to speak on behalf of a group or represent anyone other than yourself.

You can share your story in text, audio or video. And if you'd prefer we document it for you, we'd be happy to.
