First-grade Perspective of Civil Rights

Overheard Monday afternoon

Emma: Fisher, what's your bonus word this week?

Fisher: Segregation

Me (from the other room): Do you know what that means Fish?

F: It's a celebration of King Martin. I'm not sure who he was.


Of course an educational discussion explaining segregation, Martin Luther King and the Civil Rights Movement ensued. But the beginning of the conversation was just priceless.
