Default why so hateful and judgmental - 01-15-2005, 12:41 PM

i am from kenya currently living in the united states. i moved here when i was 10. i have forgotten my native language this is through no fault of my own. i love being kenyan and do not hesitate to let anyone know where i am from. i try to meet as any kenyan as i can but am often confronted with harsh comments because i no longer speak swahili. why is this why condem me because i was so young when i came here with only my mother who's whole focus was that i gain better educatiion here and in doing all she could she listen to the school who explained to her she should not speak swahili because it makes it more challenging for me to learn english. her whole focus was education so she listened. never hearing swahili and being so young when i came here i eventually forget it. so why am i being condemn as if i intentionally forgot my language as if in some why i was ashamed to be kenyan or was so ready to become americanized.

you need to state your case to the arrogant kenyans who are giving grief over not knowing your language, hang around those who are ready to help you learn your mothertongue.

Thats what you get for hanging around loosers!.There are some better Kenyans than your average haters . Move away from those illegals and get with those who are equally interested in knowing more about you
