when i was little i had always been a little bit ancy around black people (no offense i was just little; im not prejudice)well one day my mom really wanted to know why i didnt want to go to talk to this girl in my religion class. i finally spilled the beans and cried to my mom that i was afraid of black peoples' purple tongues! i kept asking why they werent like our tongues and all she could do was laugh at me. then i came home and when i was on the phone with my dad i asked him that same question and he told me the truth. i still found it a bit of a mystery though...(until i actually saw that their tongues werent really purple!)
