America
Last night I watched The West Side Story. The last time I saw that, I think was in fifth or sixth grade music class. America still remains my most favorite part of that musical.

The only time my school music lessons got interesting was an unplanned political argument sparked by the line "...if you're a white in America".
It was topped by a boy who loudly declared, "There's no racism anymore - niggers do great over there."
It took me a few seconds to get my 14-year old mind around the irony. I sometimes wonder how many others saw it.
