I do agree with Margret breaking the dishes why? Because if you think about it thats an insult especially if someone is working for you why have somebody work for you an not have respect for that person just because your a high authority doesnt mean you should just giv somebody a named that they wasnt born with and disrespect them like that but back then if black people would of stood up for what was right for them they get hung thats like going to work in modern day's and time and your boss calls you another name other then the name that you were born with its lack of respect for your employees and very offensive and can be very frustrating. When I was in elementary school I was in the first or second grade. It was the first day of school and just like most schools do they do a role call and you introduce yourself to class. So as the teacher was going around calling out students names she came across mine and as she pronouce my last name the some of the kids snickerd and burst out laughing because my last name is Duncan I didn't pay it no mind because it was the first day of school. Then the next day as I started to get to know my classmates i notice nobody adress me by my first name they just kept calling me Dunkin Doughnuts and kept teasing me it was mostly the boys that teased me more then the girls this one boy named Dwayne always picked on me about my last name in fact he was the only boy that teased me the most and then the class started mimicing him one day I was in art class coloring and cutting up paper and Dwayne walks up to my table smacks all my papers on of the table and he said "I smacked all your papers on the floor what are you going to do about it Dunkin Doughnuts?" So I stood up and shouted out "my name is not dunkin doughnuts its Jeanetta!" an i picked up my papers an sat back down at my table the whole classroom was so silent the only thing you can hear is the air conditioner running even the teacher was shocked that I snapped like that because i was always quiet ever since that day all the students called me by my first name.
