Embarrassed By Brian Vu
There was this one time that my dad and I were at Sports Authority. We were looking for some tennis shorts, but they were no where to be found. My dad looked and looked but he still couldn't find it. We were about the leave until we spotted a person that looked like an employee. My dad confronted him and asked him where were the tennis shorts. He looked at my dad for a long while and finally said "I don't work here." Ooo... I was so embarrassed. My dad said he was sorry and left. People in this world assume many things. One of the assumptions are that depending what race you are, determines your job or intelligence. The man that my dad confronted was Mexican. Why, just today, my friend called me to help fix a computer because I was Asian. Needless to say, I did fix the computer and my friend's assumption was right. I want to spread to the world that racial sterotypes and assumptions are not just and it should stop.
