Possible Answer: I remember witnessing an incident on the
playground last year. It involved my friends who were making fun
of two Asian students at out school. They were calling them names
and laughing at them. I was embarrassed to be with them. It
was difficult to do, but I walked away from them. At lunch hour
they asked me if I was mad at them. I told them that I was mad
about what they were saying. We had a long discussion. I
listened to them and they listened to me. We're still friends -
and they don't make fun of other people anymore.
