Smart girl.
Dhimmitude ain't so bad. We keep quiet, bow our heads a lot, shuffle our feet, go "yessuh, yessuh, yess'm, yess'm" a lot (it gets easier with practice), and learn to keep our heads low, and stay out of trouble.
If only those troublemakers hadn't taught our kind out to read, our lives would have been much easier.
I heard someone say once, though, that in a hundred years or so, our chilllun might be free to speak their minds, and, get "reparations" to make up for what we endure today.
I don't believe it, though.
Thanks a lot pal.
