What are you assuming my answer is?

This reminds me of this guy who thought there was no way I could really be Black on twitter once because I was talking about teaching calc III.

I was gushing about how I love how dedicated my students were, at the time I taught a calc III class. At that time none of my students were white.

This dude is like "that is impossible you aren't really Black"

Is this what you are doing?

@futurebird

That's one of the most racist things I've ever heard.

You might like this guy's story. It's horrible, but he's a really funny storyteller.

@Uair

It was so racist I wasn't even angry just stunned and kind of amused.

The guy really couldn't imagine it. I couldn't possibly exist. Wild stuff.

@futurebird

My mom was a math teacher.

She just barely got through...I think it was called "Differential Equations" at the time. The class you take after calc3.

And she wasn't a dumb woman.

Respect.

I remember a fascist trying to infiltrate a comics website a while ago (as it's the FN - very effective, alas - strategy to send people to infiltrate every corner of the web).
He was drawing his own (fascist) comic, so he wasn't expelled from the group (though many clearly condemned the fascist tones of his comic).
When someone else mentioned Moroccan comics, he was genuinely shocked and didn't believe it; he sincerely couldn't imagine Arabs being able to draw comics...

This class was at a community collage and it met at 7:00am many of my students would show up dressed for work: home depot, starbucks, a few in suits as they had an office job. They impressed me so much.

I will do something about this domain but I was really hoping this person would explain what about my initial post set them off on "this isn't a real Black person" I'm sincerely confused and would just like to know.
