(This is in response to people of various ages, who have attempted to harass me, in recent days.)
I am of “mixed race”.
It’s not your call,
whether I work in a particular school.
That I don’t fit your criteria
of Correct Colour,
means nothing.
I am a straight male, who acts his age.
It’s not your call,
whether I work in a particular classroom.
That I don’t like your gay come-ons,
and insults, means nothing-
to me, or to my friends,
whether they themselves are gay or straight.
I am a World Citizen.
It’s not your call,
as to for whom I vote,
who I call friend,
or who I think should be allowed in the United States,
or anywhere else.
Your fear blinds you,
a naturalized citizen.
It does not blind me.
Enemies of mine,
I make and live by my choices.
These are my calls,
supported by my friends,
those of my family who support me,
and my supervisors at work,
who believe in me.
Post this on Facebook! It has general appeal. Of course, unless that would cause you more harm. I am sorry that people are uncaring; you are more than fine.

It has been seen on Facebook, and I do not expect it will cause harm. The people to whom I refer, have no influence with my supervisors.

Well said Gary. Sometimes people try to mold us to their own expectations. I have moved away from all that, long time ago, and now if people tell me to do something, I just ignore and do the opposite.
I am just glad that you a friend of mine. It means a lot, to have friends who are genuine. And you are one.

the worst human is a project for the best… I’m happy you seem to set a way of being a tad higher by example. Now, would you like a lovely puppy?? π

I’m sorry to hear you are being harassed! The way you live your life is your business alone — sometimes it’s easier not to talk about some parts of one’s own life. I learned early on not to discuss politics or religion aloud except in the appropriate groupings — and other sensitive issues can also be kept to one’s self. Take care, and continue on with the things you enjoy!

I keep close to the vest on a large number of issues. The people to whom I referred were imposing their views on several of us. This, you and I have agreed, is very rude.
