You have the audacity to accuse me of that? Because of my skin color, you assume that I’ve never worked hard to get where I am. You assume that I’m a gold digger because my looks don’t match my name? Because I speak with my native tongue, you accuse me of ruining the country? Newsflash, this “Americans speak English” country of yours is home to many others like me, but you wouldn’t know with your ignorant opinions on what you think is okay. My language doesn’t concern you, nor my looks, nor my name, because you don’t even know me.
