A young interracial boy wonders why people are labeled by the color of their skin. Seeing that people dream, feel, sing, smile and dance, regardless of their color, he asks, “Am I a color, too?” Gerald Purnell’s powerful art brings this simple poem vibrantly to life.
“When I think of all the people, All those faces in my sight, If people are really colors, There should be more than black and white.”
