During this week's session, I brought up cultural competence and the importance of that for me as a person of color, for me and people working with my children. Dr. Cottam got frustrated and said, "I'm so sick of people playing the race card" to which I told her I'm sorry but this is our lives. She responded and told me, "her best friend is black. She's a director of diversity in Missouri." LOL! I told her to have a chat with her best friend about our conversation and get her feedback. We've been seeing her for about six months and my children don't feel comfortable talking to her and I've tried to encourage them but clearly, they were picking up on what I had been overlooking until she made it obvious for me.
