I grew up in a small town in the south. My first encounter with racism/awareness of racial differences was when my mother told me if I dated a black boy that no white boys would date me (I was 11). First realization that racism was a thing that existed in the world and my family.

I definitely noticed in high school, but I don't think I really started to get an understanding of the differences and inequalities until college (which is very alarming)

Public experiences with my dad (black) have always been different than experiences with my mom (white).

I guess the first time I had a Black student in a class with me, in 2nd or 3rd grade. I recall finding it interesting in a "I'm curious and want to know more" kind of way. They stood out since I was at a predominantly white school.
