John Green Quote
When Ben unfurls the T-shirts, there are two small problems. First, it turns out that a large T-shirt in a Georgia gas station is not the same size as a large T-shirt at, say, Old Navy. The gas station shirt is gigantic-more garbage bag than shirt. It is smaller than the graduation robes, but not by much. But this problem pales in comparison to the other problem, which is that both T-shirts are embossed with huge Confederate flags. Printed over the flag are the words HERITAGE NOT HATE.Oh no you didn't, Radar says when I show him why we're laughing. Ben Starling, you better not have bought your token black friend a racist shirt.I just grabbed the first shirts I saw, bro.Don't bro me right now, Radar says, but he's shaking his head and laughing. I hand him his shirt and he wiggles into it while driving with his knees. I hope I get pulled over, he says. I'd like to see how the cop responds to a black man wearing a Confederate T-shirt over a black dress.
