Question:diversity, pride, strength?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: diversity, pride, strength?

I tried changing my last name to Gates,and it didn't make me rich.

Then I tried Pitt, but it didn't make me handsome.

Then I tried Eisenhower, but it didn't make me a great military leader or take 4 strokes off my golf game.

You could borrow a Swahili-English, Zulu-English or Masai-English dictionary from a large public library (or find one on the web) and come up with something, but expecting a label to change the contents is not reasonable. You are either strong, diverse and proud or you are not. Changing your last name won't change that, if your last name is normal. If it is "Periwinkle", head to that library fast.

Best of luck!

pffttt...try that ..

All of those qualities come from you as a person. You can be all those things, without changing your name.

No one cares what your last name is, it is what you do with it that counts. You want strength, pride, diversity and what does it matter you are black. You have to make those things happen for you, a name is just a name. It's what you do with it that counts.
