Am I stupid because I'm black?
December 6, 2009
I have an average of a 3.0 but is it not good enough because I'm black? I always perservere but is it not enough because I'm black? I would like to be a lawyer will I not make it because I'm black? I love to read but but does it count because I'm black. When will this hate go away. Will it stay because I'm black?

You shouldn't let sterotypical racist tendencies get you down. I believe that you are just as capable of becoming a lawyer as anyone else on this planet. Ignore them; show them you are strong and can do it. You can do anything.
