When I was in not so friendly Mississippi in sixth grade, I met some not so friendly people. Sometimes these people were teachers and sometimes they were students. My parents had been sure to shelter me from a certain type of injustices that affected my life and still affects my life. In this one moment, I had gotten the leading grade in my math class. My teacher then said, "I did not know people like you could be so smart". At first, I was confused, but then it kicked in what she really meant behind those carefully disguised words. I brought it up to my dad when he accidentally exposed information to me about my first grade and kindergarten teacher wanting to hold me back even though I had exceeded all requirements needed. I hated these people
