Black or White? I go for black in 2010
by Filippo Addarii
Despite 3 weeks under the Brazilian sun, my new color couldn’t persuade my friend Darren (I call him Black Mamba). He argued that I couldn’t understand the Blacks’ struggle because of the color of my skin.
In all my life I have never allowed anybody to put me in a box and won’t start now with my skin limiting my outreach. If I have to become balck to understand I will do it. Are you following me?
