The other day I was talking politics with a couple office assistants, and the one (Latina) one who used to be involved in city politics was saying how she wishes the Occupy Wall Street protests had more specific demands, and then we segued into talking about deportation of illegals (she knows someone in his early 20s who came over illegally with his parents when he was 10 and just got deported back to Mexico from Michigan), when the one (black) office assistant came up and I made a joke about how I was waking everyone up without coffee by talking protests and politics...
"Protests?", she was like. "I am so happy that they are protesting on Wall Street," she said, talking about the high student loan burdens people have, and no hope of jobs.
