Long Answer

1. Sandra did not get the opportunity to know Heritage growing up because he was kidnapped by Congolese soldiers when he was just a child in grade school. Ultimately, Heritage returns to the family, after being badly beaten up in Bukavu. Sandra and other children in the DRC had incredibly difficult childhoods, rife with violence and trauma from some of their earliest days. (Chapter 2)

2. Sandra feels both undesirable as a prospective romantic partner, and at the same time also fetishized. On the one hand, many of her white peers are fascinated by her hair; at the same time, the men on the campus seem to prefer white women over all others.
