A lovely Facebook post from Jack Sullivan, Senior Investigative Reporter at Commonwealth Magazine:
We were at the Y pool the other day and Gwyni was pointing out the goggles on one of the kids in the pool.
"Which one?" I said.
"The kid with the brown hair," she said.
"Where?" I asked.
"Right there, the boy with the brown hair and blue bathing suit," she said exasperated.
The fact that the kid she was pointing out was the only black kid in a pool of about 10 other kids never occurred to her. I love my color-blind grandchildren.
Happy 9th Birthday, Gwyni. May you never see the difference.
