Futhi njengothisha ngokwami, leyo yinto engihlala ngicabanga ngayo - ikakhulukazi uma ngibheka iqiniso lokuthi ngifundisa emphakathini ohluke kangaka.
NgoJuni 1, uthisha ozinze eNew Jersey, owayenabalandeli be-Twitter abangu-300 kuphela ngaleso sikhathi, wangena ezinkundleni zokuxhumana ukuze abelane ngenqwaba yezincwadi zezingane ezikhuluma ngobuhlanga nokucwasa. Manje, uchungechunge lwakhe luzuzile ukuthandwa okungaphezu kuka-400,000 .
USmith utshele In The Know ukuthi unomuzwa wokuthi imibhikisho - nezindaba ezimele - yayingokoqobo kubafundi bakhe.

Uhlu lwakhe olubanzi luhlanganisa izincwadi ezikhuluma ngezishoshovu ezidumile zabaMnyama (njenge UMalcolm Little , echaza ubuntwana bukaMalcolm X kanye Makukhanye , iqoqo lezindaba ezimayelana nabalweli benkululeko besifazane Abamnyama), kanye nezimbalwa ezidingida udaba lobandlululo oluhlelekile (njengelikaDuncan Tonatiuh Hlukanani Kodwa Ningalingani ).

Isinqumo sesiteshi sasusa inkulumompikiswano phakathi kwabanye abazali, abaningi benomuzwa wokuthi lesi sinqumo sesabisa kakhulu izingane.
Kuvele kwangenza ngacabanga ukuthi kukhona abantu abangakholelwa ngempela ukuthi izingane kufanele zibe nalezi zingxoxo mayelana nobuhlanga, ukucwasa nokungabi nabulungisa kwezenhlalo, uSmith etshela i-In The Know.
