5 star, excellent idea.
I'm not a parent, but I can say that my parents taught me about it in reaction to what they faced here in America. It less about WS, and more about "don't trust white people"
Its odd because I feel like my parents were learning that lesson alongside us because we all came to the United States at the same time.
I remember the
EXACT moment my dad realized he didn't trust white people.
story time
______________________________________________________________________
We were at Central Church of God in Charlotte, NC (where Steph and Ayesha went).
There were 7 of us (5 kids) and my mom was pregnant with my youngest brother.
During the Peace, Pastor Livingston made a comment about upcoming baptisms and I dont remember but my mom's name was mentioned.
And then out of nowhere, this old white lady stood up and said, "I would like to say something
"
We were all like...
And she goes "The X's have come here all the way from a village in Africa
"
"And they are on their 6th kid, can you believe it?
"
"Now, i'm older and all my children have went away and gotten married, but I still have all the beds that they grew up sleeping on
"
"I am going to give the X's all of my children's old mattresses so that their children wont have to sleep on the floor this Christmas
"
The whole congregation clapped... my dad was shaking with anger.
In my 29 years of knowing my father, I have NEVER seen him so angry.
My mom actually had to calm him down in Igbo cuz she knew he was about to say some unholy shyt in the house of God.
After that he pulled us out of CCOG and cut ties with anyone who wen there.
2 decades later we still aint seen a single mattress
That lady just wanted everyone to clap for her.
Offering people used mattresses and blankets... isn't that how the Indians died??

After that my parents realized that white people were snakes, and always told us that no white person was better than us, and that they have been given everything.
