Back in March, a teen was accidentally invited to a stranger's baby delivery.
Some even go as far as to suggest that these scenarios prove there's no racial tension in America.
Although lighthearted in nature, stories such as this can't be used as a way to say "Lookeverybody, a White person did something good for a Black person. America's racial climate isn't that bad."
Sure, we can all get a good laugh and smile out of this but we still look forward to the day when stories like this aren't viewed as anomalies.
With that being said, we hope Jamal and mystery grandma have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
