Kids believe anything.
Yesterday, I told a group of boys that one could tell how Black someone was by the palms of their hands.
Pink Palms - White or Part White
Brown Palms - Mostly Black
White Palms - Slavery Black
I told them that this also applies to nipples.
Brown Nipples - Not White
Pink Nipples - White
Today they told me that I was correct.
All their darker friends had brown or white-(ish) palms but that the light-skinned friends had pinkish palms.
(And don't even get me started on their nipple research.)
Maybe I should be more careful in the myths I unintentionally spread.
