The Only Black Boy in the Room

1–2 minutes

As you scan the rows and aisles,
through a sea of
mostly white faces,
your eyes brighten up.

You spot a brother.

And as you lock eyes with him,
you instantly feel what you
can only describe as
kinship.
You both give the nod,
and smile.
This semester, you won’t be
the only black boy
in the room.
