Congratulations! As personal response to your question, I'm celebrating my kids today. Both are Black British, both have faced many struggles, both are overcoming the crap that life throws at them and are making their way. Strong, joyful, determined. You know how much heartbreak our society puts onto young Black people. And how wonderful it is when, despite it all, they keep on going.
Caroline, thank you for sharing this!! Absolutely, your kids deserve so much praise, and so do you for raising them to be the brilliant people they’ve clearly become, despite all the things stacked against them. Bless y’all.
Go you!!!!
