I liked the symbolism of this. It feels even more relevant on a day like today.

Not sure what an Arab’s shins and feet look like?

Don’t think it would be visually entertaining, but I liked it for what it was.

As per Warren's comments, I liked the symbolism on this BUT not sure as written that it would be clear what race the children would be. Maybe it need something to set it up a little.

Brown and hairy if the Arabs at my school were anything to go by.

Poignant - you got a ton out of a single page. Love the title - the logline needs a little work.

Enjoyed this

More of a message than a story, but it has something, and delivers it in one page.

Kind of like that, in a sad way.

Well done

I get the message. It over-simplifies things for me a bit too much but over all, it works.
