Any BIPOC adopted people here?

I am still plagued by not fitting in with the Latinx community or with my upbringing; white family. I constantly feel like I am looked to by Caucasian friends as an inadvertent token. But, yes am white cultured in so many ways-just let eveyone down. My mental health issues just creep into any type of social justice participation, eventually leading me to believe I have no right to express any opinion on the matter. Just fuck up everything and every moment. I’m not sure I explained that correctly, but I know this feels like a safe place. #POC #BIPOC #Anxiety #LGBTQIA #Adoption
