Hi Cyrus, the experience you shared about the Russian boy asking why you weren't washed when you were born is quite thought-provoking. Have you ever had any other encounters with innocent but ignorant comments regarding race or skin color?

Yes. Sadly, even that might never be enough.

@Cyrus, it's unfortunate that tribalism and colorism are such persistent issues. It's important to continue raising awareness and promoting acceptance and equality.

Yeah I had a few more not-so-serious encounters back in Russia. After a while you become numb to these things. Tribalism and colourism are the subsets of racism that still plague many parts in Africa.
