Words matter

 I keep thinking of the Meghan & Harry interview and the fact that when their son was born someone in the family asked how dark was his skin. I had a similar experience when my second son was born, My mother wanted to know what color he was. Seriously!!

As far as I know the father of both of my sons was white. My mother had a problem with the fact that his mother was born in the British West Indies and therefore he must have "black" blood. How I grew up without being prejudiced I really do not know!!
