What are parents teaching their kids in this state?
My girlfriend is an elementary librarian. She was teaching kids today about Nelson Mandela, and her fifth grade group really irked her. She especially found it rude when a girl was like, ‘Who’s that monkey looking dude?’
Okay, where did she get it from? Because you know she got it from somewhere, to make a comment about a black man like that.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
