The Middle of the Bus

Lucy and I had a great little girls lunch on Saturday.  Lucy was telling me all about Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks.  

When she was done sharing with me all she had learned this week she said,  " Back then I probably would have had to sit in the middle of the bus....cause I'm a little bit brown."

I couldn't help but laugh!  In her 7 year old mind, if the white people sat in the front, and black people sat in the black, then of course the brown people would have sat in the middle.  

I am so thankful for how far we have come, but realize we still have far to go.
