I was in Grade 9 and new to the school (my third move in 2 years) and I went to my French class. (Total French Immersion)
The bitch asked me to intro myself, and I did. I used a verb tense and a few words that wern't familiar to her, and she 'dissed me in front of the whole class, mocking my accent. Her exact words were 'Worse than a Haitian". (I could tell by the way she spoke that she wasn't a Parisian, but a provincial French girl.)
I replied, "And where was you're family in 1940? I bet they were a bunch of Vichy France traitors, meanwhile, my people faught at Normandy, while you're people sat back on your fat ass and did nothing. And now you immigrate to my country, a country where my people have lived for 400 years, and you mock the WAY I SPEAK? Who the fuck are you? Go back to France and service Nazi soldiers, you Imperialist Provincial whore."
She freaked out. Threatened me. I told her that I'd repeat the Haitian remark all the way to the school board, and report the way she mocked the Acadian accent..and Haitians.
She sent me back to my seat and tried to glaze things over with me...and I did very well in the class. Bad enough when teacher's are racist.
