This was thoroughly disheartening. I mean, all I did was read your words and my threat instinct was triggered. You are an amazing person for your attitude towards it all. I wish you all the best.

Nana, this is such a great piece! I’ve had it hard believing that skin color still, somehow, manages to look like a crack in the world piece but every now and then, I’m reminded that people will be people and like you say, “genuine white arrogance” can be expected. I wish nothing but the best for you baby boy! Shine bright!

Woow!! You had me analyzing each sentence, breaking each one further down and savouring every bit, piecemeal lest I finish it too quickly – you know, that same attitude a child has towards her favourite meal. I began, thinking, “another one of the many, yet similar experiences of a black man in the land of many dreams”. I ended blurting out, “this is a unique recount and dissection of a similar story”.

Like the USA, I think life needs to be enjoyed fully with ones guards still held high up lest one falls to the police of prejudice, hatred, fear, and ultimately a failure to impact the world with ones talents.

Thank you, Karikari for touching the world, one mind at a time with your gift!
