1978
when jackie got back that day she was crying. It was mon. nov. 27th. Hyde could usually figure out what was wrong.
"i. jackie?" he asked looking up from the forman's table.
"i. harvey milk has been shot," he said.
She looked smaller than usual.
"who's harvey milk?" michael asked.
"oh I know who that is. He's that gay politician guy," mrs. foreman answered.
"the flag guy?"
"he didn't design the flag but yeah," eric answered.
"but. How?" kelso asked.
Jackie turned to him: "how the hell do you think?"
"but...why."
"bc he's gay ok? That's what a hate crime is. They started in '69."
"are you?" mr. forman who hadn't said a word until now asked.
"no. but it's just so sad that such a nice person was shot just bc of he was! Er is."
this surprised them all. Both that she was upset and that she was upset about something that happened outside their little circle.
