Lafayette 75 x 365

Exasperated at being called prejudiced yet again by my inner city students, I taught an impromptu lesson on racism.

We discussed the major races, where they originated in the world and the impact of migration.

Lafayette sat in silence. Then:

Lafayette: “Who won?”

Me: "What?"

Lafayette: “Who won the race?”

Oh what a beautiful anecdote. Seriously. Like the source of an essay or homily.
