[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Heh - I wonder if people will think I am my kid's nanny when he's born later this year! I can say that as a black woman who went to both public and private schools, I did get treated differently by teachers until labeled as "articulate". It's pretty sad to hear that stuff like what people are describing still happens. I wonder if it is also name based? ex: Does "Jaquan" get treated than a black kid named Scott?[/quote] Oh, they will. I'm Latina but super light skinned and blue eyed. I'm regularly called the nanny for my two half white kids. People are dumb.other than skin time, hair texture and hair color...they look like my clones. The under 35 group, however, nails it regularly.[/quote]
