And even coming here today, I told some friends and colleagues that I planned to talk about race, and they warned me, they told me, don't do it, that there'd be huge risks in me talking about this topic, that people might think I'm a militant black woman and I would ruin my career.
Y aún para venir hoy aquí, le conté a pocos amigos y colegas que pensaba hablar sobre racismo, y me advirtieron, me dijeron, que no lo haga, que habría grandes riesgos en que hablara de este tema, que la gente podría pensar que era una negra militante y que arruinaría mi carrera.
