\u00a0\u00a0\"dagSicilianAfro\"\u00a0\u00a0Looking at our weblog statistics page, I learned that one visitor found us today after Googling “Sicilian Afro.”<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0To my surprise, the\u00a0top two<\/em> results for that Google query are f\/k\/a<\/em> posts:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. One post<\/a> is about Brown v. Bd. of Ed<\/em> and White Flight.\u00a0 It briefly described how having a Sicilian Afro provoked racial animosity in Southie.<\/li>\n
  2. The other<\/a> reminisces about the South Dakota Attorney General (later Governor), who was rather rude to me in public, thinking my Sicilian Afro made me look like a “foreigner.”\u00a0 The episode has made me sensitive to sterotypes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I’ve inserted the above picture (of the future dagosan<\/em> in 1971)\u00a0at each of those posts, for the benefit of future searchers. Trust me, Mama G. greatly preferred this haircut<\/a>, or these<\/a>.\u00a0 Enjoyable search engine diversions like this always remind me that I have been neglecting our Inadvertent Searchee<\/font><\/a> page.\u00a0<\/p>\n
