Hi Eve,

Interesting story with very complex psychological and emotional themes. I’m sure it’s difficult to explore and sum it all up. That said, there were several moments where I wondered if in fact your mission was accomplished. Did you get over your prejudices? Do you still think you have racist tendencies?
6 months is a short time to reverse the effect of a lifetime of indoctrination. Do you see your black friends outside of the townships or do you keep them segregated from your other friends?
Jay, my transformation actually occurred in a split second, rather than over 6 months. In that moment, a lifetime of fear disappeared.
In my experience, change happens in an instant – sometimes after many years of preparation…
