This morning Nikita grudgingly got up from bed to go to school. The first thing she mumbled after getting up was “I want to sleep some more. I am so jealous of the blacks”. My jaw nearly fell. I was like – What on God’s green earth are you talking about? Eventually, it did dawn upon me that she is doing a project on Rosa Parks in school when, half way to the bathroom, she mentioned that during the segregation period in this country, blacks could go to school only for five months!!
Classic!
