"One of the most important words I know doesn’t have a simple English equivalent, which says a lot. Sawubona, a Zulu term means, “I see you.” Not just your face, of course, but your hopes, your dreams, where you came from and where you’re going. It’s not something we’re good at, and I need to do it better." ~ Seth Godin

All friendships require both people to work hard to understand the differences between them. This is especially true and strained if your friendships are interracial. So pay attention.
