Texto do Storyboard
- Hi, my name is Mena
- I feel so excited to be at my new school!
- Hi, my name is Mena and i will be sharing my story with everyone how i experienced racial disremation at my new school and how to overcome these challenges by communicating with a wide range of relevant skills, strengths and strategies which young indivduals can use to challenge racial discrimination. I will also be talking about the behaviours and feelings which i felt being faced with racial discrimination.
- Go back to your country, no one wants you here
- Before i start my story i would like to say what racial discrimnation is. Racial discrimination is when someone treats you unfairly, including the following; bullying you, because of your skin, skin colour, nationality or ethnic background.
- Maybe she was just joking around with me right?
- It all started in 9th grade, it was my first day at my new school, at the time I didn't know anyone at my new school. I was just considered as the new kid around my grade.
- *Smiles and waves at the student*
- It was break time, I was playing in the courts as I witnessed someone push me during break time at the courts and when I turned around to see who it was, the individual had said, “Go back to your country, no one wants you here.” The people around her laughed at the foolish comment. I was very confused for the rest of the day as to what she meant as I thought I was in my country.
- I would eventually forget about it thinking it was a random one-off event. I thought of it as a normal thing to happen to students who are new to school. I didn't think much about it.
- The next morning I was heading to my first period class and as I was waiting for my teacher to appear in class, the same girl who I encountered yesterday who pushed me during break time at the courts and told me to go back to my country was seated behind me. I smiled at her and waved and as i was about to make a friendly introduction she gave me a glare and started asking me questions which made me feel uncomfortable.
