Good morning children. I have a sad and annoying story to tell you. So I'm on vacation in the US and I'm hanging out in Augusta, Maine, and yes there are Somalis there. Anyway, I was grabbing coffee this morning and while in line, this Somali man of a similar age is standing in front of me. He realizes I'm Somali and turns around for a short conversation. The prick REFUSES to speak Somali and sticks to his broken English, going on about 'boliis brutality' and Dhonal Traam. So I told him that I'm only recently learning about my culture and I put in a decade's worth of work learning
Somali. The khansiir sticks to English, apparently trying to impress the all-white coffee shop (it's Augusta, Maine). This made my blood boil as this man attempted to single handedly erase a decade's worth of work and repeat my dad's mistake of assimilating into white society. I can see another 44 year old khasaaro calling this man dad in 25 or so years. I tried to prevent it but I failed.
