I'm well aware that those "peers" of mine will never see this letter, but if there is one chance in a billion they will, I shall write.
Most adults believe the mind of a fifth grader is very underdeveloped and that they don't know the full consequences of what they do. I can testify that this is just wrong. There is no way that a 10 year old let alone a child, you, would be unaware that maltreating and vilifying someone has no consequences. I was 9 and coming from a school that was full of students like myself, coloured. The school I went to was yours, a predominately white school. I hope you know what that means, but if you don't, it means I was a little "unique". However, you noticed much quicker than I did, and for that I will always look back on the outcome. I will look back on how YOU threw soot and grime on my skin and said both have such great similitude. How it was YOU that told me my value is nothing more than the fecal matter that excretes from your body. Such memories are not ones that I can forget. It is said memories that burned the inside of my soul and crippled it along with the flavor of my character. I washed myself away from all that made me a "Nigge*" and "Puta" and forced myself to be a person duplicate of you. I said to myself how dare that girl wear out her hair not straightened because that is what you rebuked me with.
Despite this torture that I underwent, I do not wish the same outcome for any of you. I do not wish for revenge. There is just one thing I wish for and it is for you to admit you knew how your actions would implement my character. How you were aware you singed and vaporized every bit the human I was before even the follicle of hair touched the environment you call school. The place I call agony, pain that cried every night and day behind those navy poles rooted in the playground that concealed me from your excruciating words. I hope you realize that everything you did will stay with me and hurt me until the very last piece on my body decomposes. For it was you that destroyed a little girl.

ReplyWhy do white people think they are inherently better? This makes me sad that you have to go through this because no one especially a kid should be going through this. Fuck them and keep your head up high. ❤️
ReplyOur society is seriously crazy. First of all, why do adults think that small children cannot be mean and know that they are hurting someone? I was bullied in Kindergarten and first grade for my name and my freckles and of course all of my so-called "trusted adults" laughed in my face about it and never addressed that that hurt me. Second of all, it is never acceptable to treat someone better or worse based on the color of their skin. Human skin color and race does not have anything to do with personality or morals. It simply shows how close one's ancestors lived to the equator. As a white girl, I'm saying that everyone is the same, and one should only be treated differently based on the character of that person. Love you!
