Everyone should receive the same rights no matter how different one may be.

However it makes me upset to learn that still to this day, some schools and places are still segregated.

It is very unfair that they are being discriminated for something that they cannot control.

It goes to show that the school and the people did not care about a childs education, or what they knew. What mattered to them the most was their skin color, if you weren't like an Anglo and behaved like an Anglo, you were inferior to them.

It goes to show how fully committed one is for something they shouldn't even have to be fighting for in the first place.

It is definitely unfair for people just to be focusing on ones skin complexion rather than on what they do or give back.

The fact that they were still U.S Citizens and still denied access is incredibly shocking to me.

It is completely unfair for schools to judge someone based off their skin color, especially if they are there to learn and be educated, not judged.

It's shocking to think that discrimination existed towards a community that did so much but received so little in return.

It also angers me because Anglo workers did not think that Chicano students would get far in life, or in their education. Tue, 13 Sep 2022 13:52:51 -0400
