You don't know me. 

What gives you the right to tell me about me?

Have you walked in my shoes?

Were you there during every moment I have experieced?

Do you know what it is like to walk in my shoes?

Have you lived where I live?

Have you run in any of my circles?

Do you know any of my folks?

What have you done to support me that justifies your audacity to judge me?

Do you even have the facts?

No? Nothing? Nada?

Then, stop talking about me like you know me. 

Speak from my experience, not your prejudice.
