I'm feeling that. I'm not yet 40, but I was also shielded in many ways from it from parents who grew up in Jim Crow, ironically.

Don't get me wrong -- I wasn't naive enough to believe that our society is racism-free, but I certainly didn't get the radar that I needed to navigate it when I was growing up.
