Making a human being of any race, feel ashamed, guilty, or at fault; for something that happened in the world, in which they have no control over.
After being pulled over for running a red light, I was let off with a warning. Later at work I told this story to my coworker. ( I am white and she is mixed) She immediately took my story, and made it all about her. She spent 10 minutes race shaming me, claiming it was only due to my race that I was let off with a warning. While if the tables were turned, she would’ve had to fear for her life from the police officer.
