Discrimination is the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people or things, especially on the grounds of race, age, or sex.
To A Lovely Mother, I’ve always wished that you might accept every part of who I fully am and with an open mind and open arms. I’ve heard the way you speak about people like me. People who love other people who also happen to share genders. I have always wanted to tell you that I like women the w...
To My Dearest Friend, The past four years have been very difficult for me. I have never been particularly political, but that was because I never really had a specific issue I felt would matter. I thought my view as an individual citizen was just too small to be noticed. But this time, there were...
To the person who will hear me out, I think that if we can get President Trump out of the White House after the election there will be hope for this country. Donald Trump has been seen as the most fearful catalyst for social justice reform since the Civil Rights movement became a significant part...
DEAR FRIEND, I WANTED TO TAKE SOME TIME TO EXPLAIN SOME OF THE DIFFICULTIES I HAVE BEEN THROUGH IN MY LIFE.

Dear Friend, I am one of the people who is suffering and infected by COVID-19. I am in treatment and feel like I'm at the edge of my life, passing my time alone in the hospital. During this bad time, I have recalled a lot of memories. Whenever I recall my memories of discrimination and racism I i...
Dear M- This isn't an easy letter to write, but I wanted to tell you about one of my experiences in the science program you recommended to me back in college. I'm sure you remember the one chaired by Dr. F? When you asked me about it back then I always deflected, changed the subject. You probably...
Dear friend We've come a long way, haven't we? Do you remember the first time we met? I didn't know you and you didn't know me, and I think we were both a bit skeptical of one another. While you would likely assign equal responsibility for that, I believe I should take the blame. I grew up in a t...
Dear Niece, Your Grandmother asked me to speak to you about some questions you have been asking. I hope I can help. I remember when you were 6, you put your arm next to mine and wanted to know why you were so much darker than me. I think I said something like, "It's just the way God made us, and ...
To My One And Only Friend, Today I'm writing this letter because I wanted to tell you about my experience. I went into the local store here today and when I went to pay for the items in the cart, the lady asked if I was going to pay for the items that I was putting in my purse. Mind you, I had si...
To My Loving Wife, Greetings to you darling. I hope that this will find you in peace and good health. I am writing to let you know and/or answer your many questions on the experiences in Qatar back in the year 2008. On many occasions, I failed to let you know of the reasons I shifted from Qatar t...
To My dearest friend, I wanted to let you know how I feel. You were one of my best friends growing up. Your family was like my family and my family like yours. I was so thankful to have a friend being the only black student at the school. You never made me feel different and always made me feel n...
Dear friend, It has been a while since we last had a meaningful conversation but until you say "stop" I will continue being your friend. I'm sorry growing up I couldn't do anything or say much when you asked me about what I felt about your situation. I knew growing up your skin color was basicall...
Dear Person in Pain, I know you hurt so much due to the lack of empathy, the violence, the hate even though we are neighbors and friends and kinds, I know that death by a thousand cuts and hidden bias hurts as much as a knee on the neck. But I want you to know I care about you. I love you. My hea...
Dear Sir, I'm writing this letter to you to explain how I felt that day when you discriminated against me. I was walking down the street and you pulled up alongside me with another police officer in your car. You yelled at me to freeze, go up against the wall and show you my I.D. This was all in ...
To A Close Friend, I never told you about the time a group of people threatened my friends and myself because of our orientation. It was 10 years ago and we were on the beach. My friends were behaving loudly and flamboyantly, I did not think much about it because it is a liberal-minded area. Howe...
Dear friend, I wanted to relay to you experience with racism. Many years ago, I was in training to be a therapist. One of the training modules included leading a group therapy session. Part of the training included being observed by a licensed therapist by way of a two-way mirror. The licensed t...
To My Best Friend, I wanted to tell you about my experience of racism. As a Jewish person growing up, I was harassed many times by the cruel country boys in my High School. You may say to yourself, "How is this racism if you are white?" This is something that took many years to come to grips with...
I'm writing this letter to you because we have not talked in a long time. With everything going on in the world, I've been thinking about things in my life that have forced me say to myself, "did that really happen?" When I was playing baseball in Georgia (in Highschool), I can remember a specifi...
Dear Friend, I've always wanted to discuss this with you but I've never felt it was the right time. With you being black and me being white I want to discuss the racism in our community. We live in a very segregated and low key racist community and I want to know your thoughts. Kids would make jo...
To my dear friend and former professor, It's been over 4 years since I've seen you, and I've often thought about the impression you placed upon me. I've never been so vulnerable with anyone about my race, and pacify any walls I may have, especially concerning fears of being too arrogant, privile...
Dear Woman v who judged me, noticed I know this may be awkward since I am a white male and you are a Middle-Eastern Woman, but I am still human and felt the effects of the judgment you had against me that day in the park. I was by myself painting a picture of the trees and buildings when you came...
