Today my eight and ninth grade classes learned about stereotypes, discrimination and prejudice. The following is a snippet of what happened in one class.
Mrs. Darii: An example of stereotyping would be for me to say that the girls in our village are the prettiest in Moldova.
Rodica: But that's true!
Mihai: No it's not.
Ms. Leone: *Laughs*
Rodica: Hey, Miss. Jessie can understand Romanian!
Mrs. Darii: Yeah, she's getting better.
Yay for progress!
