Since we have such a large presence online and sadly go viral for all the wrong reasons, has anyone you know or worked with mention anything to do with out online presence? it happened to me once but she didn't say anything directly it was a phone call by a mathow lady who was asking me questions to do with my health and told me what my ethnicity and I said "somali" and she suddenly got shakened and was like oh so you consider yourself black, like the way she said it was like she wasn't sure what answer I was going to give till i said yes I'm.black and she was relieved loool if you only heard the conversation.
