A long time ago, me, my sister and my yaya went to my YaYa’s home. They were calling my sister baluga because she’s half black, they were throwing rocks too. My sister was just an innocent child, and those poor people have the audacity to treat someone disrespectfully just because of her looks 🤦♀️ their attitude is the reason why they’re in poverty today.
