CNN has delved into a conversation that many of us have had with only our closest friends. Most personal discussions may reflect on the first time someone called you a nigger or the first time you realized you were different.
The CNN network has launched a series of videos featuring celebrities like Wendy Williams and Doug E. Fresh; CNN anchors like Don Lemon and Van Jones, and other well known and not-so well known faces. In this series, they discuss the first time they realized they were black and that being black mattered. They also dive into the conversation about the first time some of them experienced racism.
Some of these stories many of us can relate to; and others are simply disturbing.
