Original airdate: May 28, 2010

Miriam sat her glass down on the table with a thud.

“You the one from school still scratching yo’ head ‘bout why people act this and that way.” She pointed at the side of her head. “What I know ain’t in no book of facts. What I know is what is… sure as clay red. My knowledge from life, common damn sense.” She pointed at Ayanna. “All you
know’s some tumblin’ clouds of ideas nobody can touch. You full of facts but dumb ‘bout knowin’ yo’ people and yo’self.”

Miriam got up, snatched her pitcher of sweet tea and went into the kitchen.
