re: #38 Backwoods_Sleuth

I can’t even begin to tell you how upsetting this is to me. My first teacher in kindergarten was Miss O’Brien and she was black. Now even in the allegedly liberal California Bay Area of 1965, having a black teacher in a pretty much white school was an ISSUE. But my mother insisted that I be put in Miss O’Brien’s class. Two years later, my sister was in Miss O’Brien’s class.

Fast forward 54 years and we are going backwards to hell in a handbasket. On jetskis.
