We were discussing Martin Luther King, Jr, and reading the book "Martin's Big Words". It was very touching how absolutely shocked the kids were at the idea of people sitting in different parts of the bus based on the color of their skin. "Not fair!" "Wrong!" and "That's racism, Mr. Graham." Very touching.
Earlier in the day, we'd posed for a picture about skin color.
The other high point of the day was three students playing Uno during choosing time: at home, these three students speak Arabic, Vietnamese and Russian, but they can play a fierce game of Uno in English.
"That doesn't help me to get more cards. I have to get zero cards to win!"
