The wife and I went to a baby care class yesterday. It was a very diverse class, black, asian, white and hispanic couples, none intermixed I promise to you purists out there, but other than the asian parents gasping when the instructor suggested it was okay for the child to get a B, there wasn't much to report about at least when it came to race relations.
That was until we were instructed to go pick up a baby doll that we would use to learn how to hold the baby, wash the baby and change the baby's diapers. They made the partners (i.e. the one's that gave the sperm, the parent or the lesbian buddy, hopefully few crossovers in those three groups) walk to a table and grab the fake baby. As I walked over I noticed that there was one black baby doll. I was behind 4 black men, the Asian and two hispanics, no way I got to use a little Shaniqua to practice on. As each white baby was chosen I saw little Shadynasty laying there waiting to be loved. Of course the Asians and hispanics took white babies, but each black man took a white baby pushing Serena aside. I proudly grabbed Laquisha by her feet. I am sure there is some sort of greater social commentary somewhere other than that black girls have cool names.
