How was school life for you all growing up? I went to a mostly white school, but for the most part, wasn't too bad. I dealt with my fair share of racism from white people. Gradually I got used to it, and I ended up making friends and I think the whole thing about it, helped me grow, but helped others grow. Because a lot of the people I hung out with, didn't have a black friend, but when they hung out with me, they realized they didn't hate black people, they were just taught by racist parents.
Anyway, it was rough at times, especially elementary school, because so many kids questioned who I was, why I was there, and so on. But, I guess that happens when you're one of the only black kids at a mostly white school back in the 90s. But yeah, I made friends, had my share of bullies and all that. But once high school came around, I would say I was pretty popular or well liked by my classmates. Still dealt with racist douchebags from time to time, but it wasn't that bad for the most part.
But, how was your school experience like? Any stories to share?
