The school uniform I so disliked had two advantages. At St. Dominic, I looked like everyone else. The other advantage was that I only required play clothes. That was good because I had only one pair of pants. And St. Dominic was the one place where I heard kind words spoken about the poor. When the teachers there spoke about the poor, they did not realize it was me. My clothes blended into the sea of uniforms in the classroom. There, I was an equal. No one was above me. No one was beneath me.
