The first time I became aware of anybody's skin color was at age five in
kindergarten. My mom had come to pick up me and my twin brother, and one of
her girlfriends noticed that we were friends with one of the black kids in
the school. My mom's girlfriend remarked, "Isn't that sweet? They're
friends with a little black boy."
Even at five I found that remark unusual -- or maybe it was because I was
