Color Blind Generation

(scene: M hops in the car after school)

M: Uh, don't be mad, but my teacher is probably going to call you tonight

Me: What did you do now?

M: It wasn't MY fault!

Me: No, of course not. Why would I possibly think that?

M: I know, right?

Me: Spill it. You're expelled right?

M: Not yet, but well, Mr. G? You know my physic's teacher? He was like "you guys are too loud" and then he looked right at me and Not-Erin and we weren't even talking and then, like a few minutes later he turns back around and tells me I have to move and I said "It's because I'm black, isn't it?"

I love M. She's probably the only fun one in physics class. And the only politically incorrect one. And the only Non-Asian.

MY GAWD IT'S CONTAGEOUS.

LOL!

There is a black dude that I work with and he's awesome. Hilarious guy. Whenever my daughter is there with me and we are leaving, he always tells her to "Stay black". I'm afraid she's going to start saying it to second grade.

OMG... that is freaking hilarious! But, it's not... I hope she doesn't get expelled! Just like her mama!

Hugs - Tiff

No, she didn't get expelled, and her friend Not-Erin, who is black has been giving her "black lessons" and she's got the "oh no you DI-N'T" head bob down perfectly so she's probably got a career as a black ninja vampire ballerina in her future.

PS to Re-RE - LOL! It's funny because it's TRUE! Hee hee

this reminded me, one time my hubby (who is white) said something like this at work and had to talk to HR about "racial sensitivity." He played his "but i'm married to a black woman card" but they still thought it was best he take a sensitivity course!
