A
high school classroom in
Maryland.
“Talib,” the history teacher
said, trying to get Talib Zanna’s
attention. He didn’t answer. He
appeared to be day-dreaming,
staring out the window, like a
thousand other freshmen in
a thousand other classes in a
thousand other high schools. She
called his name again. He looked
up. She told him to pay attention,
but soon his eyes turned outside
again. She asked what he was
looking at.
“Snow,” he told her. “I’ve never
seen it before.”
