Discrimination
One day when I was 16 years old. I was in the school with my friends. In the school the teachers were  not Emiratis but they are arrivals. All teachers were  good with us in every subject. In the midterms we had an exams and we want to pass in the exams but we were good in all subjects except one subject we failed  in it so we talk with the teacher to help us but he don’t want to help us. After the exam all students are failed so we went and broke his car because he didn’t help us.
