today, i wore african attire to work---my kinte colors
i had a scarf, a vest and a crown
i was a little worried that i might offend some people, but most were totally razzed that i was celebrating with them
a couple people questioned my exact race, lol
one teacher told me " i just finished explaining to my class that i didnt dress up because it isnt my heritage--i'm white--and in you walk!" i simply replied--science currently says that man arose from the loins of africa, so we are ALL descendants of africans
my favorite question was an elderly lady who asked me if i was "ethnic"
