Once knew a Nigerian-American family - smart, educated, hardworking, studious, determined - and very kind Christians, too.
Plus, I loved their accents. lol
Of course, that doesn’t mean that every single person from a particular country is the same. But, the fact that this ethnic group is successful isn’t surprising at all.
I met a fellow at a gas station a while back, spoke with a lovely sing-song accent. I asked if he was from the islands, and he said that no, he was from the continent.
I told him welcome, and wished him good luck as I paid for my cherry coke. I hope he does well.
(We could use more of them, the ones who want to live in freedom and to better themselves, that is.)
