The problem is that she just wasn't as graceful as they like. If she had been white it might not have been a problem, but that wasn't going to cut it for her.
I always remember her because her Mom was white and used to give that girl ATROCIOUS make-up- just pastel pinks and all kinds of awful mess on her face. You could tell they didn't know how to handle "our" complexions. Poor girl!

Thanks lovelyivy..........
Here is a pic of her for those that might not remember.
I think she was adopted by those white folks  or was it just her mom that was white http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Pagod...y/gallery.html
