Same. I was born in Wolverhampton in the UK, which is actually often informally known as "Black country". On our street the majority of British people living there were actually black.
Just to be clear though to any non UK people reading this, it's been called "Black country" because of reasons to do with coal, soot, the industrial revolution and so on.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
