I had to look it up, because I had never heard it used that way.<br><br>I learn so much from MacMinute. Like, which doll to get my niece for Christmas. <br><br>

That was very interesting a few things stuck out in my mind.<br><br>a - when asked which doll you want to play with = most picked the white one<br>b - when asked which doll is the bad doll = most picked the black doll<br>c - when asked what doll is you = they picked the black doll - this question was asked right after they chose the black doll as being the bad doll . Shows low self esteem at an early age , IMO<br><br>d - One teen was saying that not knowing her heritage "which African Tribe" she was descended from meant more to her on how she would react socially - Very interesting point and a good one , however due to the way their ancestors were basically kidnapped there can be no way to determine today where their heritage is ? So with that its time for her to cut lose and say that I am American and my heritage starts in Florida <-- or something to that extent ? IMO maybe DNA can help but its a long shot I think.<br><br>
