You know what I absolutely hate? When people say "the first African-american to do this or the first native to do this" like, seriously, I don't care. At all. I care much more about what you do than the color of your skin. You are just another human being like everybody else. Mekiah Johnson
About This Quote

I hate when people say "the first African-American to do this or the first native to do this." This person cares much more about the color of their skin than they do about what they are saying. They are like other humans, but they aren't. They are pretending to be something that they are not, believing that they are something other than what they truly are. The reason why people insist on saying this is because these people don't want to be associated with what they do or who they are. They don't want to be seen as human beings, but rather as things.
