Okay.

And so they're, they're components of my story, my journey.

And yes, there were components of my physical appearance, uh, you know, being African American but having no pigmentation.

That is definitely gonna catch, you know, the eye, especially in predominantly African American spaces, just as much as spaces that are even more diverse.

And so while that was apparent, most people don't know albinism comes with, you know, some varying degree of vision impairment.

Not always, but more often than not.

Um, and so there were a lot of things I had to navigate, some hard lessons internally, um, more so than externally.

Right, right.
