My family is part of the working class so they always work overtime because working full time is not enough to maintain a good quality life. I wasn’t blessed with the opportunity of being born in a wealthy family but my parents instilled in me the value of education. I am a Latino and I am part of the subordinate group and since the first day I came to the United States I was force to assimilate with the dominant group. For example, in school I was force to join a class for English speakers and no bilingual classes were offer to help me. During that time, I faced a lot of discrimination by other white kids because of my accent. Through my first year I was bullied a lot because other kids had prejudice beliefs instilled by their parents which led the children to ostracize me. I remembered that I had a best friend name Frank in elementary school. We would always play together until one day his mother saw me playing with him and told him not to associate with me anymore. At the time I was confused because I was still a little kid, however, know I understand that although most of society like to say that racism doesn’t exist anymore, it is still a prevalent problem that affects a lot of people daily. Racism is not as evident as it was ages ago such as with the slavery system, however, it has taken new forms such as color blind
