she said they came to our area from Ecuador about 18 years ago. She told me that her mom and dad went to our high school and that they were greeted with a lot of racism and xenophobia from teachers because her parents couldn't speak english when they moved here (she didn't tell me how old her dad was but she told me that her mom was 14) and that there was a lot of other people moving to our area from latin america. She said they were basically treated like crap because they weren't american. She told me that her mother had to drop out in freshman year though because she was preg with her sister. But she told me that her sister formed a club that helps latin american immigrant students learn English, make bilingual friends, and makes sure they are being treated well.

I had no idea about this because my parents didn't go to school in our area (they moved here the same year her parents moved here but my parents were old, I my mom was 31 and my dad was 27 and my parents were from near by) and it made me so sad to think that my school did this.

idk what the op was expecting

it's wrong that they were treated that way, we all agree, but we don't like discussing something just for the sole purpose of consensus circle jerking eachother.

I just think it's sad, like when I heard that, I started wondering if my dad's cousins had to deal with that kind of stuff (my dad's first cousins moved to america from argentina when they were in high school) or if my grandparents or great aunts and uncles dealt with that. My aunt was about 14 when she moved to America from argentina and though she was white passing while her brother (my grandpa) was not, I still wonder if she dealt with that.
