'I have had a white colleague who has gone in to do a court report on a black family. He didn't understand the dynamics of how black families can refer to one and another as my sister when they are not blood relatives....he thought these people are lying....he failed to see the culture differences. I was able to be more of a help to him'
 
'...no preparation, no understanding about making ends meet. They have no concept at all. It’s all about appearance. It’s all about looking trendy. It’s all about having the right materialistic things. A lot of black people today don't have a good awareness of their cultural identity therefore unable to raise their children in that likeness...their basic meals come out of Iceland. It is unheard of for most of us'.
