My newlywed parents moved to the east coast in 1952 and got invited to spend a day at the beach, a couple hours’ drive away, with some friends throwing a party. They got lost. They pulled into where they thought they were supposed to go, and the faces on that beach all turned to stare them down with a look of, We’re not allowed to go to YOUR beach, what makes you think you can take over OURS? The folks were from out west and that was their first experience of Southern segregation and they were horrified for the exclusion inflicted on others (now that they’d had a glimpse of what that felt like) and strong advocates ever after for civil rights. I remember my mom signing a petition…

Franklin fared no better than the girls in the comics, but at least he wasn’t an annoying b*tch.
