[quote=Anonymous]This was interesting to me to read. Because I went to a private school. And there was a black girl there named Tiwa. That's where the similarities end, because Tiwa was a very bitter girl. She thought everything was a slight against her, and it was always because she was black. I didn't even remember this happening, but I ran into a teacher a couple of years after graduating who recounted a story: Tiwa asked me for a cough drop. I said no. She said, "It's because I'm black, isn't it?" and I said, "No, it's because my throat is red." I haven't thought about that, or Tiwa for over a decade. I'm happy to read about another Tiwa, at another private school, who pushed through the difficulties of being one of the very few black girls to come out okay. [/quote]
