Oh, she'll get it, I'm sure. I'm just looking to the future.
A little anecdote;
A kid comes home from school and tells his mum that he's been playing all day with his friends, Abdul and Simba.
' Abdul and Simba ? ' asks his mother . ' Are they black ? '
' I don't know ' says the kid. ' I'll ask them tomorrow '.
What that means to me is that- if we keep on emphasizing differences- we are actually creating them. Still- go Harris.
