98. Stop saying he learned his racism at home

Wed Aug 7, 2019, 12:52 PM

Aug 2019

My brother is the only racist in my family. He learned that shit from his friends at Camp Pendleton.

Young Parker really needs to thank his lucky stars I’m not his mom. If I was, my husband would remain in Columbia doing his work for the last two years of Parker’s high school career, and Parker and I would move to Bedford-Stuyvesant (one of the biggest African-American neighborhoods in NYC) where he would attend public school.
