[quote=Anonymous]Wow. I remember walking out of a public city library with my very young daughter, behind a black guy with a huge afro and my DD and I having this conversation: DD: Look at that man's hair! Me: Yup, it's beautiful! DD: Do you think it's fluffy? Me: Yup, but we don't touch. DD: Just a little? Me: Nope. We're white, so we never, EVER touch a black person's hair. They're allowed to hit us if we do. DD: Why? Me: Because black people's hair is sacred. DD: What if they're sleeping? Me: No. If they are your relative, THEN you can ask and IF they say yes, you can. The guys in front of us were shaking with laughter, and when we got outside he thanked me for teaching her not to touch. We've been talking about race since my kids were little. I'm trying to do better than my parents. My father never mentioned race, and my mother only told me never to marry anyone black because it'd make things harder for me, and life is already hard enough. [/quote]
