B
(2020·石家庄市高三模拟)On my first day of high school, going into math class, I was pointed and laughed at by two of my classmates.I initially thought my fly was open, or that something was stuck in my teeth.But as I took my seat, I heard one student whisper, “Why is a black boy taking Honors？” So, my fly wasn't open.An honors level class had simply been taken by a student whose skin was brown.
Many people think my clothes should be big enough for me to live in, or expect me to listen to only “black music.” In seventh grade, a group of my classmates fixed their cold stares on my clothes.They called out to me, “Go get your gangsta clothes.” In one of my Spanish classes, the teacher asked me, “Do you like rap music or rock music more？” I replied, “Rock.” The look of shock on my classmates' faces made me uncomfortable.
Now I still take all Honors courses.I still wear clothes that fit me.My music library covers from rock to pop to techno, and almost everything in between.When it comes to choosing my friends, I am still colorblind.I continue to do my best to work in school in order to reach my goals; and yet, when I look in the mirror, I still see skin of that same brown.
I believe in being myself.I believe that I myself should decide who I am and what actions I take in life.In high school, popularity often depends on your willingness to follow trends.And I've been told that it doesn't get much easier going into adulthood.But the only other option is to sacrifice my personality for the satisfaction and approval of others.This can be appealing, but I'm not going to do that.
