A pair of high school girls came into the library where I work and asked
me for movies about the Ku Klux Klan. I gave them a list. When
they emerged from the stacks, I added another suggestion. I admitted
it might not be quite the right thing for a school presentation, but I handed
them
Ramones Mania and pointed out "The KKK Took My Baby Away."
I told them is was a fun song even if it isn't appropriate for their
project. Heck, if their teacher is a Ramones fan, the students could
end up with extra credit points for their diligence. And if not, at
least I found a way to expose two more people to the Ramones.
