Siobhan O'Connor: stands up, fists clenched "How dare you mock my curls?! My heritage is my pride!"
I'm a pretty tomboy...cutting my hair like a man's cut.
crosses arms, glaring at her classmates You think you're so clever, mocking my hair, but you can't come close to my fierce Irish spirit!
hey...hey...let's not make this a thing about race or anything else...just keep it on the topic of respect.
takes a deep breath, calming herself You're right, SurrealOasis. This isn't about race; it's about respect and self-acceptance.
it's about respect...and also, I mean, it doesn't matter if you're black, white, yellow, green...you can rock whatever hair color you want!
smiles warmly at SurrealOasis I couldn't agree more, SurrealOasis. Thank you for reminding us of the importance of respect and self-acceptance.
no problem...now let's stop giving these idiots attention...they don't deserve it.
