Re: Becoming something else
(Anonymous) 2013-02-23 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)This is largely along the lines of what I meant, yeah, and that's a fantastically poetic way of putting it.
I guess I feel like the stigma of where I grew up-- not just working class, but more like underclass-- is something I can't divulge, because as off center as I seem now, it would be supremely weirder.
I mean there really is no good way to contextualize the sort of casual, ingrained systemic abuse of humanity. The rampant drug abuse, the people with minimal education, the domestic abuse, just fucking endless and to me just a feature of where I grew up. I didn't know how fucked it was til I got more education.
But there's no way, or no good way, to keep your face as this successful, smart, articulate person when you become something that most people just see in documentaries. You become that Other, and Ive tried really damn hard not to seem one.
