Ratings and reviews

Here’s me a wee girl who wanted to keep all but my skins colour and wanted raven hair but of course straight. I got to age 10 and wanted to be dark as my Mama cuz my mum was white Celt x Norse mix of blinding caucasien and blonde brillant blue eyes I loved my black eyes n hair but I just wished by then I was like my dads American side dark as midnight I think it is so gorgeous. Maybe growing up More in Canada after ten not Toronto or Nova Scotia so yep hurt by racism fr MB to Louisiana but I’d have given my eyes to be what we really without buggering our Afrique selves all would still be dark.Shame our inner racism thrust upon us and beat into us by centuries of European rape and tryin to breed us like horses with Irish in particular... that we have centralized our inner black racism as normal ! Brainwashing can be undone I learned that starting at ten. As women we are so harmed this makes no sense?

inspired me to know I'm beautiful
