- Hello, Good Morning! I'm Kyle, and I'm your research partner. Is this perhaps, Jen? The one with a black skin color?
- MESSAGE
- Good morning to you as well, Kyle. Yes, I am your research partner for the semester. And, yes, I am Jen with the black skin you're referring to. I am African-American, but I have lived in America my entire life.
- Why? Is there an issue with my race or skin tone?
- FEEDBACK
- RECEIVER / DECODER
- Hm... No, there is no problem, but over the years I've been in university, I've always preferred to work with other white people because we can understand more and get higher grades.
- BARRIER
- ARF!ARF!
- ARF!
- I see what you mean. But rest assured that I also intend to achieve a high grade, and my skin color will not interfere with my abilities.
- Please wait a moment, Kyle. My dogs have just entered my room, and I am currently unable to hear you. I'll call Mom and have her bring them out.
- ARF!ARF!
- But, when we get to our research paper, we'll see if what you told me was true. All I want is a high grade in this subject.
- I completely understand, Jen. I just wanted to express my concern that your performance may be inferior to that of white people.
- Come over here, sweeties!
- I mean, everyone wants to get a good grade, not just you. But, you know, you shouldn't judge someone based on their skin tone because you don't know who I am and my skin color isn't the basis of who I am.
