Hot Blushes

I started drama lessons with the kids this afternoon. The first task was an improvisation sketch in small groups: you have just received an anonymous Valentine's card. How do you react?

One girl beckoned me over and said: "Miss, I can't do this."

"Why not?"

"Because I'm black."

"What does that have to do with anything?"

"Well, miss, I want to blush and I can't!"
