I do, because as a kid I was treated very similarly simply because I was unlucky enough to have been born dark complected. When I tried to get help from teachers, my relatives used every trick in the book to try to have me committed as a kid or jailed as an adult to discredit and silence me. Just so they could keep drug dealing and keep their money. I actually and unironically have went through something very similar to you.

What you went through is common believe it or not. You’re not alone.
