1. As a kid, I always viewed all generosity with extreme skepticism, doubt, and most of all, fear. Mom's would always send me on trips or out with friends with a rule: don't ask for anything and don't take anything you didn't pay for. When I moved to the "burbs" and became the token, I had to deal with the crazy amount of pressure from adults who didn't understand why I just couldn't take the ride home, or the slice of pizza, or what the fukk ever. Them white parents really made a nikka feel bad about his life when I was younger.

2. I could get away with a little bit of backtalk, but if my tone of voice even thought about getting buck like I was about to curse... I'd be missing teeth within microseconds.

3. I didn't realise that parents were "supposed" to come to every game/event for the kid. My mom's came to probably 10-15% of my events max. Once again, them white parents made me feel like my family was wrong and I was from some broken home.

4. This ties into #2...Teachers/parents who had little-to-no experience with black kids mistook my silence or quietness for brooding/having an attitude problem. It's like they expected backtalk and to have to compromise with a child, where I knew authority was absolute and there's no option but the stfu and listen/do as told.

Excellent thread topic breh

the system is inherently racist against black children.

Who remembers crazy hair day in elementary school and being ostracized for not being able to have crazy hair.:upsetfavre::mjcry::wtb:
So I did some time in a catholic school from 5-8. I needed a haircut so I got a fade. I legit got snitched on for having an "extreme" hairstyle and had to justify it to the principal. These nikkas told me my hair might be too short for school policy.:upsetfavre:

Idk. I feel like in america its really all the same. Especially when you're a kid.

I think income level causes a bigger difference in what a kid may/may not experience then race.

My parents told me I was better then other kids and I believed them.

I wasn't taught to act like a slave until i turned 18 I believe.

Experienced alot of racism but I was taught those people were beneath me and we're not properly developed cognitively.
