There was an incident that occurred in my school where a white male was making racist comments on his social media about the black people that attended my school. I’ve watched and mostly heard about how badly black people have been treated unfairly all over the news and my social media accounts, but to witness that kind of behavior in front of my own eyes really made me feel completely different about the situation. It made me realize that African Americans really do go through numerous amounts of violence based on the color of their skin and something should be said about it. Although, some kids did approach the boy negatively by threatening to beat him up or curse at him, but the rest of us decided to get enough of the students to dress in all black on that following Friday to support the Blacks Live Matter Movement. That day while the national anthem was playing, we all sat down in silence and then we even joined together in a prayer circle along with our principal and administration. What he accomplished made such an influence that our school ended up on the news.
