" ... as we're walking toward the train station / there's a whispering rainfall / cross the boulevard you slip your hand in mine / in the distance the train calls ... "

Signal boost: How to Discuss Race and Racism Without Acting Like a Complete Jerk:
Intentions aren't the only thing that matters. Suppose I step on someone's foot. They say, "hey, ouch, you stepped on my foot." My proper response is, "Gosh, I'm sorry. I'll be more careful." Depending on the situation, I might add something like, "I was looking for my kid's sneaker that she always kicks off," or "I've got something in my contact," etc. My proper response is not, "Well, I didn't mean to step on your foot, so why are you angry?!"

And since I'm linking, this week it's more like a plate of stir-fried greens -- we've been getting a lot from our CSA: " ... I'm the kid who has this habit of dreaming / sometimes it gets me in trouble too / but the truth is I could no more stop dreaming / than I could make them all come true"
