White American psychiatrists have been more dismissive of me than the regular kind. I do not mean to imply that there is anything wrong with white Americans, which is what I am. Just pointing out that doctors are people and peoples beliefs are shaped by their early childhoods trusted adults, then their experiences then their education.

A white man can tell you in perfect sincerity that racism is not a problem in the US. If you dont believe him, he feels you are challenging an authority of which source he has never questioned. Not all white men, but weve all met that one.
