What I Told Zuri Phillecia A Hardemon

As a descendant of Africans kidnapped and sold into a slave trade that would leave Black people separated for generations. Black being the radiant source of life, read as I tell my daughter a history that she can understand. Zuri is 5 years old and we are light skinned. She often wonders if we are white or black. It's hard to identify as black when black people don't really interact with us, or white because white people don't either. The history of the Black people that represent world history.
