    I would say 2 is a little early to start Rosa Parks reenactments.

      I’d say day care as a whole is too young. If you want to give toddlers a lessons on race, tell them that the 2-year-old black kid is no different from the rest of them. Which is really easy: treat her as no different from the rest of them. Kids, amazingly, learn that lesson just by watching.

      I doubt that girl was delivering a convincing performance anyway.

      The only tired I was, was tired… from nap time.
