In between

Togolese Flag

As a first generation american myself, although I do consider myself more of an american more than anything else, I always claim African all day long versus and "american black". I know a lot of African kids that claim black versus what the really are, and your probably thinking what's the difference well there is a major difference that i really don't feel like explaining. I think me claiming African is major way a give honor to my heritage. Also with eh food I eat

fufu and such, and of course with the language i speak, ewe, though i can't speak it all that well, but i understand every word of it, my mom won't let me forget that but. I proper balance of two cultures, i think would be a 5 foot 9 and a half inch black kid around my skin tone, i think, after all i pretty sure I've found a good balance, i'm american enough that no one seems to question where i hail from, but if any ever asked i'm more than happy to tell them my origin and a minimum of three fun facts about it, i feel i genuine pride of a country and culture. I love being foreign, its like exotic, i'm not like everybody i stand out, and who really likes just blending into the
back ground any way.
