As a black woman who served in the military, what is your perspective on patriotism? By definition, patriotism is the quality of being patriotic. Devotion to and vigorous support for, one’s country. Indirectly i was patriotic in serving my country. I signed a contract to be devoted vigorously to the U.S. and it’s protection & government. But the country is the people, not just the land. And that gets a little difficult. Because the people are not always fighting for the support of patriotic rights, but instead their individual beliefs. For instance, Black Lives, Native Americans, Hispanic lives, and other people of color - their lives don’t seem to matter in this country as much as other demographics. What advice would you give to those transitioning our of the military? I would tell them to “stay the course.” In other words, remember WHY you went into the military. If you went because you wanted to go to school - then go to school. If it was to learn a trade, then learn the trade. If it was to better yourself and get a better life, then make sure you explore all the opportunities the military can offer. Learn what benefits and resources you have as a veteran. Be open-minded, because your military experience may not define who you are in civilian life. What should you Consider before joining the military? They should consider choosing a trade in the military that they can continue to do when they get out. If school is your objective, then go to school when you’re in the military. You can buy a house while you are in the military without using your VA benefits. Build wealth while you’re in the military. Make your health your priority. If you’re a woman, the statistics for sexual assault & rape are high in the military. Don’t go anywhere by yourself. Stay the course. View Sponsors at MyBlackColorado.com/Sponsors
