Write About a time when you felt that someone in authority tried to silence you or critized the way you spoke.

In the past i have had an experience where people made fun of you because you did not speak english correctly. When i was younger i was attending middle school latinos will hang out with latinos. The school i attened it was mostly latinos. I did experience people critize the way i spoke. when i started school i only new spanish thats what was spoken in my house, but just yesterday i actually got into an argument with one of our customers at the bank. He was being really friendly at first he thought i was white and i notice by his last name that he was latino. Then he started telling me how he was upse and how he was going to sue the bank for giving him an account that was for mexican who dont have papers. It got me really angry because that account is not even for that purpose we offer the same accounts to everyone. and that account that he was talkin about is for people who have bad credit. he was just talkin bad about latinos. he was tryin to silence me, which i did not think it was correct.
