Playground Politics / Long hair by Jaha Zainabu

If I was white and had long hair like Susan then I wouldn't always wear it in ponytails. Sometimes I would tell my mother to let me wear it down. I would not be mad when black girls wanted to comb my hair and make it look better. I would be happy. Susan thinks that she is cute because she has long hair but she only has longer hair than the black girls not the white girls or the Japanese girls. Susan is not cute. She has a big nose and she is mean.
