Whoa! In a way, a niggers shadow is it's reflection...
I remeber my early childhood, things like my first birthday. Before that day, I can remeber my mom teaching me how to make shadow puppets. Months later I remember her telling me I was going to be a big brother and that she needed me to help take care of my new sibling because they were going to be a baby and wouldn't know anything, so we would need to teach them (nothing whacky about that use of pronoun, it was the '70s and there was no way to know for sure the gender of the baby until it was born).
I remember thinking "I'm going to teach my baby brother or sister how to make shadow puppets". I remember waiting for months for my brother to be born, and then learning patience myself as I kept trying to get a baby to make a shadow puppet (took me almost a year).
