I grew up in NYC and wrote an episode of the tv show 'Atlanta' (ep. 307) inspired by this, it's called 'Trini 2 De Bone'. It's about a white family that goes to the funeral of their Trini nanny, only to discover their son, Sebastian is not their own, but Trinidadian.

"...when best of them practice their craft, they remind us of how high we used to fly, but now that we are earthbound (and subterranean), limited in our vista. The arts somehow makes us, yes even us, to long for such a world of splendor which we chose to leave behind."

"He will test us over and over again on whose approval we will seek. It’s easy to not seek the approval of those outside our camp but, when it comes to our identity group, whomever that may be, the stakes are much higher."

@JamesClear "Now, there is a law written in the darkest of the Books of Life, and it is this: If you look at a thing nine hundred and ninety-nine times, you are perfectly safe; if you look at it the thousandth time, you are in frightful danger of seeing it for the first time."
