My kid is mentoring a young black kid who needs to be brought up to speed with the Cambridge syllabus. She was introduced to him as "Sam". She immediately asked him for his proper name, which is Kitso, and asked him how to pronounce it.

Then she went in.
She asked him why he lets white people get away with calling him Sam. He told her it's cos they can't pronounce Kitso. She went MaGasa numbered tweet on the situation.

1. Your name is Kitso. Own it.
2. If white people can't pronounce it, they can call you "sir".
3. If they can pronounce Sinead and Latham and fucking (yes, she swears a lot) Pierre, they can fucking learn to say Kitso.

#DeadBy "they can call you sir".
Also, this kid is doing Cambridge as a UK soccer club has recruited him so I want you to remember this name : Kitso!

If you struggle with that, just call him sir.
