What I learned from that one time I was called a racist

I guess people never forget their first whether it’s a first date, first trip to Disney World, first best friend, etc. How about “first time being called a racist”?

Ordinarily, when I witnessed someone in the public sphere get cancelled over racism like Sharon Osbourne, I often see the person in question defending themselves against the charge
rather than challenging the very notion of what racism means in this day and age.
