My mother tells me that when she was very young she had never seen a black person before as the neighborhood she lived was all white (not segregated, just homogeneous.) She tells me that when her parents decided to move and put their house up for sale a black couple came to take a look at the house. When they drove up, she and her sister we so amazed that they shouted incessantly "Look, Mom, Look! They're black!"much to embarrassment of her parents. She tells me that she doesn't remember making any judgments about the people based on their color, but the remarks were obvious enough to show that yes, kids notice.
