King is my Boy
June 1st, 2008
Two middle-school kids get on the bus and pay with a dollar coin.
Girl: ”Was that a Jefferson coin?”
Boy: “I don’t care… Jefferson never did nothin’ for me. King is my boy!”
Girl: “But, Jefferson was President, King wasn’t.”
Boy: “Okay, but who fought for our people? Not Jefferson.”
Boy: “King is my boy.”
