Some Family Trees Are Thicker Than Others
(I’ve been working as a cab driver for a few months now, but I’ll never forget my very first ride. I pick up two dark-skinned, African-American, fifteen-year-old girls from their school.)
Girl #1: “I have to do the genealogy project on my family, but not on me since I’m adopted.”
Girl #2: “You’re adopted?!”
Girl #1: “Yeah…?”
Girl #2: “You never told me that!”
Girl #1: “Dude, are you serious!? My parents are white!”
