I saw more prejudice towards children with less economical means rather than prejudice to blacks or latino. In fact, a football player would relentlessly attack a certain student that used to be in my homeroom class. Just by the way he dressed. Tim, killed himself due to his life at home and I am sure the ridicule at school only furthered his resolve.<br /><br />If I remember correctly, the few African Americans in the school were actually held on a pedestal. Chris Battle, Eric Cruz. All good running backs for the Eagles and I dont recall them ever complaining about racial tensions. <br /><br />There was a Linebacker named Mack, as well. Wonder what their thoughts would be on their time in New Caney Hickville. Believe they all went on to college via athletic scholarships.<br /><br />If, Anonymous, did attend during the years he states, those would be names easily remembered.<br /><br />As TPP stated, pull your big boy britches up and stop spouting about something you clearly are falsely stating, or that you brought upon yourself.Eagles Corner #28http://www.newcaneyisd.org/Domain/22noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402213004228907598.post-85432073401524321952014-01-22T22:56:11.018-08:002014-01-22T22:56:11.018-08:00I suppose, in this day and age, I should have pres...I suppose, in this day and age, I should have presented the disclaimer that I and my siblings are also Hispanic, that my grandmother was born in Mexico, and that my mother was the Spanish teacher at New Caney while the last anonymous commenter attended. As for somehow having PTSD for being bullied in high school (psssst.... Most of us were) I'll assume your comment might have been a joke, or more likely, you need to grow up and understand that problems you faced might not have been a result of your ethnicity. And even if they might have been, I still say, grow the f*ck up.The Political Palaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03802688894578033192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402213004228907598.post-22842710902484594092013-09-01T11:58:35.493-07:002013-09-01T11:58:35.493-07:00I went to school in new caney also wouldve been cl...I went to school in new caney also wouldve been class of 93; noe its not so bad but back as long as i remember i was ridiculed, harrassed, bullied, singled out as a troublemaker when it was other kids making trouble. Most of the kids back then were from very very ignorant racist trailer trash homes and just repeated what they heard at home but that was no excuse for ALL of my teachers allowing me to be bullied for being hispanic in such a white area. I have <br />C-PTSD from the relentless tormenting i was subject too.
