"School time,assholes!"I exclaim as Marcus and I enter the school.God,I hate this place.

"Wait,where are you going?"Marcus asks.

"I am headed to AP English."I tell him.

"Do you understand what they're teaching there?"He laughs.

"Yeah,Marcus,I'm not a dumbass and I like to read."I say and walk away from him.

I get to class and sit behind Max.

"Ready for school?"I ask her,but she rolls her eyes.

"Welcome back,AP English!Hiding in the back there you will find our new student,Virginia Miller."Mr.Gitten says.

"It's Ginny."She adds and I quickly take my phone.

stoner boy

blair :)

our neighbour is in AP English

stoner boy

am I really the dumbest?

blair :)

yeah,you are

I put the phone back in my bag and focus on class,but instead of actually learning something I heard Ginny talk.

" There are 16 books on this syllabus.14 of them are weitten by men,15 were written by white people,and I'll guess the one black author will crop up for Black History Month.Am I right?"She says and everyone was now paying attention to her.

"Bold."I wishper.

"I'm very serious about my education,Mr.Gitten.I'm worried I might internalize an ideology that the main viewpoint,the viewpoint worth studying in class,the viewpoint of the greats,is only that of the white male,thus eradicating my voice as immaterial.And finally,I'm worried I won't be stimulated intellectually.Also I read The Crucible and I am confident that I can take the pop quiz today."She says and everyone was shocked at what was happening.

"Are you through,Virginia?"Mr.Gitten asks sarcastically.

"No.Please call me Ginny."She sags and everyone chuckles.

"Well,I don't know how things were done at your last school,Ginny,but here we do not tolerate political outbursts and grandstanding at the expense of your peers' class time."He says and Max raises her hand.

"Yes,Maxine?"The teacher asks annoyed.

"Hi.I'm like also super concerned about my subconscious digestion of the superiority of the white male perspective.And also I have period cramps,so can I go to the nurse?"She says and everyone laughs.

"For the rest of the class,we will be silent and take the pop quiz."The teacher says and I look at Ginny.

"Good job,Ginny."I smile and look at the board.
