Right? I remember thinking “Why did Rosa Parks want to sit at the front? The back of the bus is where all the cool people are!”

Because she was not allowed to. I mean yeah haha cool kids in the back 'n everything, but throwing in Rosa Parks is a little tasteless.

I don’t know if you know this but kids start out dumb and insensitive until they are taught.

I don’t think there was even one black kid in my own grade until high school.
My only knowledge of prejudice being a bad thing came from an MLK poster in first grade, and my second grade teacher reproducing Jane Elliot’s experiment in class (which in retrospect is kinda fucked up and traumatized me into being good, because I wasn’t allowed near my best friend).
