Color Me Impressed

Dear Sawyer,

We were walking home yesterday when JieJie asked why all of the houses in our neighborhood look so similar. I explained that in private neighborhoods like ours, a homeowners association makes sure that everyone uses the same paint colors, stone tiles, etc. so that the houses look more uniform. I told you that one of our neighbors had to repave her new driveway because her contractors didn't use the right kind of brick and that some people in the neighborhood would have complained about it. Then you and I had this exchange:

Me: I personally wouldn't care about the type of brick but some people care about things that don't really matter.
You: Like the color of a person's skin?
