    I'm very dark-skinned, even by Ugandan standards and I travel a lot, but the only place I ever feel safe is when I'm in Africa. I love Emirates, but every single transit through Dubai is a nightmare of resolutely ignoring stares, hushed whispers and pointing, sneering adults.

    "Just calling to confirm if we're still on for today." - an introvert who in fact absolutely does not want to be on for today.

    I know I'm late to this, but as someone who dropped out of school, all I can say is: Please get that degree. That paper is useful in ways you'll never understand until you desperately need it. Outlier stories are nice and all, but they are not the average person's story.

    I've never felt more aware of the color of my skin than when I was in India, walking alone through a mall in Mumbai, and people pulled out their cameras to start filming me, laughing with each other. Or when I went to this school and the teachers pulled the kids away from me.

    Every trip comes with the mental preparation for the fact that I will be judged first by of the color of my skin. Not by the decades of experience. Not by the skills I have acquired. And not by the impact of our work. But judged by the one thing I have no control over: My skin.

    And yet, in all this, I am privileged. Why? Because I have the option of walking away and choosing better people and places to direct my energy. But my biggest privilege? I know that when I come back home, I'm not going to get killed just because of the color of my skin.
