The first grade class comes in from recess, and Teacher asks KCSponge, “What did you do at recess?”

KCSponge says, “I played in the sand box.”

Teacher says, “That’s good. Go to the blackboard, and if you can write ’sand’ correctly, I’ll give you a fresh-baked cookie.”

KCSponge does, and gets a cookie.

Teacher asks XO what he did at recess.

XO says, “I played with KCSponge in sand box.”

Teacher says, “Good. If you write ‘Box” correctly on blackboard, I’ll give you a fresh baked cookie.”

XO does, and gets a cookie.

Teacher then asks Meesha what he did at recess.

He says, “I tried to play with KCSponge and XO, but they threw rocks at me.”

Teacher says, “Threw rocks at you? That sounds like blatant racial discrimination. If you can go the blackboard and write ‘blatant racial discrimination’ I’ll give you a cookie.”

XO came home from school and told his mother, “I had a big fight with Tony. He called me a sissy.” “What did you do?” the mother asked. “I hit him with my purse!”
