29/366: Rosa

She comprises a lovely potpourri of black, white, and American Indian. In high school, we’d sit in a stairwell to practice the Kyrie from Fauré’s Requiem; she, tenor; I, alto. The guidance counselor advised her, upon graduation, to seek work as a “domestic.” She earned her Ph.D. a few years ago.
