    Wow! I could have been the person narrating this story with just a couple of differences. She is a woman, I am a man. She is Kenyan, I am Nigerian. We both had humble beginnings. She left at 18 for Romania on scholarship 16 years ago, I left on scholarship too at the age of 21 to Bulgaria 45 years (!) ago. She studied medicine and specialized in ENT and Plastic surgery. I studied medicine in Greece and specialized in Internal Medicine and Medical Oncology. She encountered a lot of racism in Romania, I encountered tons of it in Greece. She got very high in the Romanian medical establishment. I am nearing retirement as a Medical Director in the University Hospital of Patras, Greece. No other black person has ever attained such a position in the Greek National Health Care System. We both got to our ultimate goals by share hard work. TLDR: Work hard, be yourself, and you can achieve anything in life. Congratulations to Dr Bayerl for her fabulous achievement!

    She is remarkable
. One on my brothers was horribly bullied and called a monkey also
. He is white
 and although he made it through college
. he has worked from home for 40 years
 he almost never leaves the house
. effects of bullying are heartbreaking and lead some people to commute suicide. Parents should ALWAYS educate their children to be kind and report bullying to teachers.

      Because we were brought to America and enslaved does not mean we are African Americans. We did not apply for visas and travelled to this country. Our ancestors were kidnapped, brought to America, abused, sold and enslaved. Our children used as alligator bait. We are Africans born in America or whatever country you were born.
      Unity is strength but knowledge is power.
      Secondly, I am not Colored, Negro, African American or Black. Black is crayola. I am a human being as everyone else walking on Earth. We are Africans. I live in America.

      Go for it gal, nursing is great and rewarding if thats what you want to do. Western countries are not easy but they pay for hard working people.
