that's wrong. My rnom told that being black women will always be hard because I would have to work 2 times harder because I am a women and 3 times harder because I am black.l�nother thing my mother told me is there will always be people that will bring you down and say because you are black you will always be a static.

You got to kill them with kindness; ignore there discriznination just show them that you are just like them, HUMAN! The things my mom told stuck with until I went back to after Christmas break.
