When I first came along in the business, they didn't really like the idea of my name being Raquel.

Always it gave me a pang that my children had no lawful claim to a name.

For me, my 'X' replaced the white slave master name of 'Little' which some blue-eyed devil named Little had imposed on my parental forebears.

I don't understand why people don't remember my name.

Changing my name was traumatic for me.

Perhaps I shouldn't have been influenced by the idea that my name could be spread across the entire world.

When you have a different name, people just kind of take the liberty to spell it how they want.

I have a name, I have to take advantage of it.
