There's an event I'm interested in attending. It kind of fell into my lap. It would open doors to a social group I've been interested in for years.

I have concerns and will probably not go.

I don't know anyone. The restaurant slated for the event is one I'm unfamiliar with. From looking at the attendees, it doesn't look like there will be any Black people there.

So my anxious introverted behind is going to sit this out...maybe, probably.

I already have anxiety around eating food in a new place that I probably don't like...and then the potential of being around people I don't know who probably lack the cultural awareness to make me feel safe. Le sigh.

Walking into a roomful of strangers is enough for me to say no. Can you drag someone with you? If there's time you could check out the restaurant and it might help. And there's always leaving if you're too uncomfortable.
