You're asking the wrong girl about fame. I'm hardly famous. I wouldn't want to trade places with anyone else.

The real estate agent had to go door-to-door in the apartment building we wanted to rent asking if it was OK for this interracial family - my mom is white and I was a 1-year-old half-African kid - to live in the apartment building.
