2 Steps Forward, 1 Step Back
Colorado student’s MLK Tribute Sparks Controversy
So another child was successfully raised unaware of race and color. He wanted to show appreciation for Martin Luther King for a History class project.
I can imagine his excitement making sure he looked as close to MLK as he could.
ENTER SCHOOL: Costume deemed too racist for 2nd grade. Great history program! Cannot we ever as humans consider CONTEXT anymore? This student WAS PROUD to walk into school looking JUST LIKE Martin Luther King, and they ruined it for him.

Experience Titanic's epic journey with day-by-day and minute-by-minute tweets as if from on board the ship itself. Commemorating the 100th Anniversary!
Starting March 10th, the new Twitter handle @TitanicRealTime will be tweeting about everything Titanic-related from the last stages of its construction, to her final resting place on the bottom of the North Atlantic.
Like @RealTimeWWII before it, all tweets will be written from the perspective of someone who was alive while the events were unfolding. With each tweet tagged with the role of the person supposedly writing it
(e.g. #captain, #engineer, etc)
