Description
Simba is my husband. We've seen too . much of each other since we lost our . baby and I had to quit my job. I met him at Mo Heke's birthday party. Someone said, "Who's the sissy nigger?" So I went up to him, asked him who he was and where he was from. "I am Simba Newhouse," he said. I waited and said, "O.K. What's a Simba?" "It's the word for lion," he said. "The only African word my mother knew.''
