Why does it feel like a Friday?

Even though it is indeed Thursday, for some reason it really feels as though it is a Friday. Today at school we read about someone named Dorothy Counts and then we wrote a letter to her. Turns out she was the very first black woman to go to Harding High. Though after 4 days, she quit because of white men stoning and flipping her car. Calling her and only knowing her as the n word. And she just knew right away she didn't belong. Her parents sent her to Harding High to get the best education that she could get and what did she get in return? Discrimination to her race. I'm really just not sure how someone can be so rude. Really, what's the point of it? It doesn't do anything in return for you so why do it? It really is just stupid.
