The Skin I'm In

`THE_SKIN...I'M..IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

summary:

Miss.Saunders asked me in class "what does my face say". I was unable to ask that question. i go to school in clothes that my mother made. she always messes up on the selves. I am the only black girl in inside this school. I feel out of place. Yet i am a nerd. The boy I like doesn't even notice me. I see the popular with boyfriends. Sometimes I wish I were them. My mother had me run to the grocery store. On my way back two black men try to touch me. I push them and try to to escape. They wouldn't let go. Finally i escape and make it home. I lost the grocery. my mother confronts me. She said that it will be okay and we can make use of what we have.

Connection:

I this reminds me of when me and my family were going threw rough my mother made us feel safe.

Also she reminded me of when I thought I was not the person I was. She made me come out of my spot.

Question:

1. Why did the two black men try to hurt her?
