It's hilarious when school textbooks try too hard at being racially diverse. "Brad, Latisha, Pablo and Kwan were doing a math problem...", amirite?

    Last week I looked back in one of my 5th grade workbooks and found the same thing, only it's always "Latino" names and "White" names. "John and Jose were playing a board game..." And in all the pictures there is always 1 white boy in a wheelchair, 1 white girl, 1 black boy, 1 asian girl, and 1 latino boy- and they are all friends.

    I've found some of the most ridiculous names. Not to sound all racist, but can't they just say, you know, Bob and Tina were doing such and so?
