As a parent of Black children I often find myself unconsciously forcing them to be smaller than they are when in public, to not be their full selves. Cos I know that if they play up, White society won't think "They're just kids being kids." Instead they'll think, "They're Black people being Black."

Every time I catch myself doing it I'm heartbroken.

I do not know much about life of black persons in the contemporary United Kingdom, but please read the real story of Abram P. Gannibal, man born in Africa and lived his life successfully in Russia in the 18th century.

The greatest of the Russian poets, Alexander Pushkin was his great-grandson. Also, many British aristocrats descend from him.
