Describe when you had a moment of unexpected kindness.

 Prompt Response: A time when I had a moment of unexpected kindness was when I made my first friend at Lakeside. I just transferred into my new class and they were doing a group assignment. My teacher forgot to place me in a group so a random boy invited me to his group. He introduced himself and introduced me to the rest of my group mates. I won't forget this because I was lonely and I made my first set of friends.

Summary: Today in class we learned about colorism in India.

Reflection: In class we read about the problem of colorism in India. After our reading we answered discussion questions to help us get a better understanding of colorism in India. The media, ads, and families help influence people to think fair skin has more beauty than dark skin.

I wanted to cry in that moment but I had to stay strong and keep my head up. Summary: Today in class we read The Color Purple. Reflection: We read The Color Purple today in class.
