    As a mixed kid i very much respect this. My mother is white and my father is black, yet i never seemed to fit in. Also from colorado, i was either too white or too black depending on who i was around.

    well said Mom ....
    My two grandchildren are black , thier Mom ( my Daughter ) is white and they have had to endure veiled racist remarks from other children . I myself have been asked if their adopted. We are a typical American family where color is never questioned ... I'am a proud Grandpa raising two beautiful children ... we are all American

      Only one person in the scenario was prompted by other children to 'play' slave. Bullying is learned and so is racism. One often ends when a person matures from childhood to adulthood the other often doesn't. I appreciate how the teacher handled it responsibly.

    A wonderful mother and educator. Insightful and evocative for me. Indemic racism needs to be exposed and labeled as wrong. It prejudice is what it is; wrong!

    Douglas county is a privileged county. I lived there with my Latino family. The kids and adults there are very out of touch with diversity.

      Why is that a bad thing? Some people just want to be amongst their own kind and not feel forced to be inclusive.

    They've been told a lie because what those kids are is Israelites lost sheep of Israel. Different shades of brown. Dont feel like you doing something because to tell them that they're the same as you would be an abomination to their creator. In time the most high Yahua-Elohim will deliver them. Vain glory is sin miss.😇😎
