I enjoyed this intro of our MC Savannah first time moving away from home for her first year of college.
She could not even deal with the emotions of being away from home because all this racist shit and people are thrown in her face. But the racist folk continue to get away with their foolishness and instead those who stand up to them are the only ones reeping repercussions.
It truly angered me and I
wish SOMETHING would just happen to them.
At the end of her first year, Savanah applies to Booker T. Washington's University, is accepted and left for her own protection of mind and space.
I'd leave too, knowing those racists' will eventually receive their karma, but just to have a piece of mind. People seriously act like anyone asked to be put with so many people with hate.π
Trust me when I say, if people could segregate themselves from hateful folk....they could seriously group up and leave and NO ONE would come looking for themππΌππΌππΌ
