A wise Brother told me that my name can be used to culturally erase me. In 200 years, any of my achievements can be depicted by a White woman with blonde hair and green eyes. I named my children with this sentiment Uhuru, Nyami, Ayo, Adesola, Ninti, Yah’Mon. I’m next.

In case you’re wondering, you’re the wise brother. I’d already named my children but never been able to verbalize my logic until you spoke to me,

I was wondering. It sounded like something I would say, but I knew I didn’t meet you long enough ago for you to have had that many children. lol. Thanks for the clarification.
