“Tyloneous Wilson, 34-year-old Karriemah Williams, 36-year-old Lakiea Gay”
The names. Always with the names.
“The names. Always with the names.”
I was talking with a clerk, a 20ish black woman, at Kroger yesterday and just mentioned that I liked her name, Savannah.
She smiled and said she was very happy her parents didn’t name her from the Ghetto Book of Stupid (her words).
She told me anytime she meets black people who don’t know her they try to ghettoise her name.
