Thumbs up Too Black?

THEY TAKE MY KINDNESS FOR . . . . . . . .WEAKNESS.
THEY TAKE MY SILENCE FOR . . . . . . . .SPEECHLESS.
THEY CONSIDER MY UNIQUENESS . . . . . . .STRANGE.
THEY CALL MY LANGUAGE . . . . . . . . . SLANG.
THEY SEE MY CONFIDENCE AS . . . . . . . . CONCEIT.
THEY SEE MY MISTAKE AS . . . . . . . . . DEFEAT.
THEY CONSIDER MY SUCCESS . . . . . . . .ACCIDENTAL.
THEY MINIMIZE MY INTELLIGENCE TO . . . . POTENTIAL.
MY QUESTIONS MEAN I AM???.. UNAWARE
MY ADVANCEMENT IS SOMEHOW????? UNFAIR.
TO VOICE CONCERN IS?????.. DISCONTENTMENT.
IF I STAND UP FOR MYSELF I AM TOO??? DEFENSIVE.
IF I DON'T TRUST THEM, I AM TOO???.. APPREHENSIVE.
I AM DEFIANT IF I?????? SEPARATE.
I AM FAKE IF I????. ASSIMILATE.
MY CHARACTER IS CONSTANTLY UNDER ATTACK.
PRIDE FOR MY RACE MAKES ME "TOO BLACK."

I went to a casting last year for fashion week, and the boss lady tell me I too black. Well I almost shat myself! Is a good ting I was in a foreign country and didnīt understand the language straight away! What she said was translated to me later.
