Maria Balaban (who's white) insists she's no racist, but she's so upset that Juliet Steer (who's black) is buried in a Jewish-only cemetery in Colchester, Connecticut, she demanded the body be exhumed and moved. When the synagogue balked -- because Juliet was buried in an interfaith section of cemetery in 2010 -- non-racist Maria filed a lawsuit. To prove how non-racisty she is, non-racist Maria provided photos of her hanging out with Cuban kids decades ago -- because racists would never socialize with non-whites even if you're a social worker and those Cubans you're hanging out with are clients who're in your care. Yep, sounds about right. Fun fact: 95% of the 14,551 people living in Colchester are white; 2% are black.
