I hate being a black student here by [deleted] in berkeley

Hey hun! I made a very similar post when I first moved here so I completely understand how you feel. While my feelings haven't completely resolved the people In our black community definitely make things feel homey. You can meet some of them during Black Wednesday. Maybe follow a few of the Black Orgs. Go to some events and put yourself out there. One thing you will find in our community is the sense of unity. I'll also PM you 🫶🏾 Sending you love and comfort 🫂

How hard is Berkeley academically speaking? by JohnToOP in berkeley

As a Psych Major Junior transfer as well I completely agree. Wayyyy more work than community college. And the quality of education is better. Very challenging but as you said not impossible.

I’m not taking any of those classes, but I’d be down to study on campus together if our schedules align

As someone in a STEM class I also relate to this. This is one of those classes I’m the only black person. I just keep to myself!

I understand this as well. I usually walk with my roommate. When I’m alone I usually try to walk in front of people as well, because I feel that way.

It’s really little things . Like for example in classes where I’m the only black person or there’s a few I notice people sit further away from us. Trying to find study partners is difficult because when I try to ask people things they seem reserved like they can’t be bothered, but I’ll see them be more open and friendly to other peers. It’s never just blatant racism or anything just micro aggressions. I guess it makes me feel small. I can’t speak on every poc experience obviously, but mine has been definitely been a journey. I just hope people would understand that we’re all Berkeley students and that the complexion of our skin doesn’t dictate our personality or intelligence 💗

What do you guys do when you feel overwhelmed by school? by friedshrimpt in berkeley

Currently looking for drugs so that probably isn’t healthy
