Fighting Through Ignorance...

It's amazing that someone would approach me about taking a special interest in a young kid. We're not talking about in any type of pervert'd way, but a genuine concern for a young African-American kid. Reminding him to stay focused, and instilling in him the notion of endless possibilities. That someone would say to me, "Maybe you shouldn't do that. That it may be a bit awkward." I can't recall on one hand the people that suggest'd I strive to reach my zenith as a person; nor, can I remember any parents questioning me about my intent with their daughter. There was no special interest; no genuine concern. Interesting!
