"go mow my lawn", "go make me somthing to eat", "why dont you and your family go jump the border again","you wetback" ,what are those things suposed to mean?
just because im brown i jump fences and mow lawns? why wont you just let me be me ,why cant you leave me alone , why cant i just be an ordinary person like you and not have to be made fun of because my skin color. i dont go around saying stuff about you, but yet you say all this stuff in front of everyone just to embaress me. so now everyday when i walk into those school doors they asume im a wetback.just because of what yo said
i meen seriously what is that even suposed to mean?
