Don’t Judge a Book by Its Cover
You meet the most interesting people during early-morning UberPools. One morning around four in the morning, a couple was taking an Uber to the airport. The driver picked up another passenger along the way, who appeared to be a tipsy white girl going home after a night of partying. The girl asked where the driver was from, and he shared that he was from Kenya.
The girl responds by saying she speaks Swahili. The couple in the backseat immediately cringed because they assumed this white girl was being unintentionally racist and insensitive. Then, to their surprise, she and the driver carry on a whole conversation in Swahili. It turns out this girl was fluent and was not being insensitive at all. You can’t judge a book by its cover!
