Any bets on whether the reason this woman was never corrected prior to this point, was because people didn’t want to risk being called racist?
Honestly, that never occurred to me! I immediately imagined a white girl with her eyes filling with tears and her lips pouting. I would think of a different reaction from an AA girl.
I’ll bet she was white. Black parents are not that indulgent.
This girl was most likely an only child with some native intelligence who went to a liberal arts U like Swarthmore or Mt Holyoke. Mama was an addle-brained liberal and Papa is a doctor or a graduate of Harvard who makes enough money to support their extravagant lifestyle.
The precious darling had her first trip to the Louvre in Paris at age 6 and before graduating high school had been to Rome, London, and all the other cultural centers of the world. Her parents were proud that she was the most cosmopolitan, well-traveled child her age at the expensive prep school she attended before college. Her mother is her best friend and Mama drove her to the gynecologist to get her first contraception at age 16.
They’re pretty easy to spot.
