    I know it happened plenty of times before, but the first time I clearly remember this happening was when i was about 6 and someone stopped my mom and wouldn't let her leave a store because they thought she had kidnapped my brothers and I and we weren't her kids. I remember vividly yelling out "That's my mother ? " and my mom not even being mad at me for cussing. Next time after that was when i was 9 and some white guys called my older brother and I ? because we beat them in 2 on 2 basketball

    Third grade. This kid me and a friend of mine used to hang out with and play soccer with said he wouldn't bring his soccer ball anymore. I called him mean and said he had a black heart. He said that's funny cause your best friend is black.

    That moment was when I realized that race exists.

    I was six and my grandmother told me "not to play with colored children" and I said "isn't white a color so aren't we all colored?" I got the switch'n of the century for that. It was a rural area in Tennessee and I was from Miami so most the white/rednecks aren't down with the urban white boy action. So most all my friends in high school were black, not trying to say that makes me cool and ? but the fact is I was accepted and friends with mostly black folk.

    For some reason the words coloreds and colors just ? me right off and I let it be known.

    Now racism towards me, yeah when I went to Jr High in Liberty City and Carroll City in Miami.

    When I was 2.

    >Be a genius 2 year-old
    >Allowing my mother to take me to the store
    >Old white ? recognizes greatness and calls me "cute"
    >"Damn straight.", I thought to myself
    >Old white ? follows with, "He'll make a great basketball player."


    I looked at that ? like:

    Mother looked at that ? like:

    Then I excused the ? for her inferiority and continued to be the unexpected.
