What raised questions for me, after reading the story about the man spitting on the 3-year old, was the grandfather's reaction after witnessing it. There was no mention of a beat down taking place and he didn't want to be identified as a witness due to his fear of being retaliated against. I guess if you subscribe to the nonviolent movement, that would be okay. But, I know for a fact, that would not have been me if I had witnessed that. Different strokes for different folks. I believe that the child will hear that story told to him many times as he grows up and I wonder what he will think about how it was handled as he learns to process the information. Who knows, maybe by that time, racism will be dead and only described in history books.
