Stereotypes Against Racism
I was hanging out after school with a couple of my friends just listening to music like any afternoon. I was getting kind of bored so I got on my phone and went on Instagram. While scrolling down through endless amounts of pictures I stumbled on a video that was about Donald Trump. The clip that I saw included Donald Trump and a mexican news reporter.

I didn’t show any emotion, I just sat there thinking about he did. Then after Jarashow told us that people didn't like him for doing that. Right there and then in my mind I was angry. In my head a thought that was being thrown was” why would they hate him if he's doing something that is very noble” in my opinion.I wanted to find out why people hated him and I did. Jarashow told us people hated him because people thought he was disrespecting the people who lost their life during 9/11 since I think it was in a few days or it was that
