An 11-year-old girl girl sent a 10-year-old school friend a written response to a birthday invitation, saying her dad would not let her go to her friend's party because her friend is black. (Source: MyFoxMemphis)
“Maybe I will not be able to go to your birthday sleepover because my dad will not let me go because you are black,” the child wrote.
“Not trying to be Races (sic) but my mom let me go,” the note continues, apparently indicating a difference of opinion between her parents.
The note was signed “Happy Birthday!”
The birthday girl’s father, Christopher Jones, said he was upset when he saw the note but didn’t blame the girl who wrote it.
