MY FATHER'S BLACK PRIDE

I was moved by Marcus Bleecker's "About Men" column "My Father's Black Pride" (15th October) and sent it to my son in California. His future children will also face the challenge of having a black mother and a white Jewish father. He also raised two black stepsmen called his father. Like Bleecker's father, he sent them south in the summer with their black uncle and grandfather in the summer. They are growing with bleary car love and respect for his white father and they are proud of their black legacy.

My mother was raped by a 17-year-old policeman in the 1970s.

His phone was pulled out and they picked up the phone and understood "Why are you trying to hang up? We understand it thoroughly, but just in case, please stop them Nike Thank you for calling .com spiel and hang up. "

For my parents, the army means pride. It started with the tradition of family services on both sides - my father and father joined during the war, and my mother's father was in the navy. Recently, they are very proud of their sons coming back to countries that care a lot about themselves. They believe that their children are educated and that these education are worthwhile but not helpful. When my brothers were deployed in Iraq for six months, then I went for 12 months and then for 6 months This is a 2 year suffering that I can not imagine. We have passed through each other on the way and have pictures to prove it:
