[QUOTE]Originally posted by walklikeanegyptian: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Snoozin: [b] Are you an immigrant, or were you born here? I know that it's a lot tougher for my fiance's colleague to be considered black here, with the inevitable prejudice that comes along with being black. I don't know if he has suffered discrimination or not. I'm certainly not close enough to ask him those types of personal questions. He's got a very thick Egyptian accent, so that usually throws people off when they meet him (he looks a lot like Mike Tyson). [/b][/QUOTE] i was born here and so were my parents. i don't have an Egyptian accent though and i talk like most of the female rappers you hear on the radio. and i look like Tyra Banks, which is sort of a throw off too. but to answer the prejudice question, white people don't look at me and go "oh she's Egyptian, we'll leave her alone." sometimes i get prejudice and different treatment from those who might or might not know my heritage. i am black enough to meet their idea of who deserves prejudice.
