(43,890 posts)Pushkin was born into Russian nobility in Moscow. His great-grandfather from his mother's side Abram Gannibal was brought over as a slave from Africa and had risen to become an aristocrat. Pushkin published his first poem at the age of fifteen, and was widely recognized by the literary establishment by the time of his graduation from the Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum.

I have asked my good friend and mentor, who happens to be black, to have the honor of being santa this year in rebuke of this ridiculous assertion. He will be accepted by my customers without a doubt. .
