It connects you the earth. The reason why you guys see so many whites do it, it’s because it something they picked from their travels from black countries.Why? Is there a benefit?
I can understand not walking barefeet in cities where it’s dirty and there can be dangerous thing on the floor.
I feel like black Americans living in the country would know what I mean. It’s funny to me to hear this is White people thing because in reality it’s actually not, they have just adopted it.
Perhaps I am reaching but I also feel like black Americans have an aversion of anything that would remind them of lowliness and poverty subconsciously due to years of dehumanization.
