    Hey. You.

    That’s your little brother you watched grow up from a baby.

    That’s your son you held in your arms the day he was born and wept until you had no tears left to give.

    That’s your neighborhood kid that helps you mow the lawn when you’re too old to get it done as easily.

    Now imagine he’s white.
