    • ]]>     In the car after picking up one of my daughter’s best friends for a play date. She recently moved from our neighborhood to another one nearby. The move required her to switch schools. She’s African American.

    Me: So, how’s your new house [friend]?

    Friend: It’s good.

    Daughter: How’s your new school?

    Friend: It’s good. But the kids are so bad! They don’t listen to the teacher at all! And then there’s this girl named Kennedy in my class…I don’t like her.

    Someone: Why don’t you like her?

    Friend: Because she’s races.

    Someone: She’s what?

    Friend: She’s races.

    Someone: What is races?

    Friend: It means she doesn’t like black people.

    Almost 4yo: Are you black?
