Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie Quote
Dear Non-American Black, when you make the choice to come to America, you become black. Stop arguing. Stop saying I'm Jamaican or I'm Ghanaian. America doesn't care...What if being black had all the privileges of being white? Would you still say Don't call me black, I'm from Trinidad? I don't think so. So you're black, baby.
