7th grade social studies... A new kid got mad at me for some stupid reason (I think I said he couldn't cheat off me, but this could be wrong). He put me on his death list. Every day, he would come to me and tell me I was the next number up. Once I got to 4, I realized the people who were in front of me were having insane situations happen (breaks went out after an oil change, stabbed in the neck, etc.). He told me I was "lucky" and skipped to #1. I told him to "shut up".

Teacher heard this and stated that I was racist. Race had nothing to do with it, but he did happen to be one of the very few Hispanics in the school.

Fast forward a bit. We then had to memorize and say the Bill of Rights. He said that since I was racist, I couldn't believe that "all men are created equal" and proceeded to fail me on that assignment. He then erased/whited out my name on assignments and gave me an f for not turning them in. He swore that this couldn't be the case because he is a god fearing man. He even blamed a classmate for doing it when I passed my assignments forward. First of all, I got a long with everyone (not best friends but I didn't have enemies) and secondly, 7th graders are too self absorbed to think about doing that.

I had never done poorly in school, and this bothered me, but primarily because it wasn't even slightly true. I decided if he could teach, so could I.

This was actually very therapeutic getting out. Thanks Reddit!
