[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband and I immigrated here from Egypt when I was pregnant with our son, in 1996. We're light skinned and many who don't know us would never suspect our son was anything but your typical white DC-area high-achiever; however, we speak Arabic at home and visit Egypt often, and we are very in touch with our routes. Our son is thinking of applying for a substantial scholarship billed for "African-American young men." He is an African-American, [b]however we assume the scholarship was intended for black students, not those who are from Africa. [/b]Before we inquire as to his eligibility, do you think he should be able to procure the scholarship? [/quote] You knew the answer before you posed the question. At any time in his life, has your son ever identified himself as Black? [/quote]
