Though this was not called a racist move by the administration, there was one incident that Cesar shared which was. One day he was running among the student apartments when he was yelled at by a passing vehicle containing three Caucasian males who blurted racist comments towards him as well as threats. Cesar did not report this incident, maybe because he thought there would be nothing that can be done about this type of behavior. He was scared to retaliate at that moment because the people might have gotten out of their car and beat him. He was alone and no one was around so he just stood still.
Racism is everywhere even on a campus that dictates multiculturalism and diversity.
Damian's mom has been taking a few classes at the local junior college lately and he can see the difference in her way of thinking already. His dad and her have discussions about what she has learned, where he mostly nods his head and keeps his old ways. Lately, Damian's mother has taken his dad to classes on family and child management that are offered through the local elementary schools and church. He dad has changed a little, but Damian can notice his mother's point of view more. He knows his dad doesn't like his mom telling him what to think and how to act - he knows because he sees his dad's reaction to this.
