A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is an American.She asks her students to raise their hands if they were American too. Not really knowing why but wanting to be like their teacher,their hands explode into the air like flashy fireworks. There is, however, one exception . A girl named Gladness has not gone along with the crowd. The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different."Because I am not an American" replied Gladness. "Then" , asks the teacher." What are you? " "I m a proud African, " boasts the little girl.The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face lightly red. She asks Gladness why she is an African. "Well, my mom and dad are Africans, so Im an African too". The teacher is now angry. "That's no reason!" she says loudly "if your mom was an idiot,and your dad was an idiot,what would you be then? A pause, and a smile ."Then" says Gladness, "I'd be an American." People send me things. This was from Nehanda Sankofa Ra in Los Angeles

LOL, This little girl is smart and the great thing about being an African is that you can be born anywhere and still be citizen of your country. You can even become president if you meet all qualifications.... in my opinion. |
