diga is the imperative form of "decir" for the pronoun "usted" (in English: Say!)

a little hint for ser vs. estar, i usually just say "if it changes, use estar, if not ser". that's not always right, but it usually is. and for dijo, dije, diga, and dijiste
dijo= he,she, usted in past tense
dije= i said
dijiste= you said
diga, i'm not really sure

Unfortunately, he probably has tenure and there may be nothing the adminstration can do about it, other than putting him on an improvement plan. But then, if he knows he is being watched, he may just decide to actually teach!

today, my mom called and talked to my consular and they told her to go up to the school and she did. He said that everything i told her wasn't true and the translation was a regular assignment. i told her about him saying (yesterday) "No me gusta esta clase nada" and he said that wasn't true, and one time we got in trouble because someone was watching the clock for lunch. she asked him if it was because i hung out with hispanics and he was singling me out and he said that wasn't it at all. then my consular said "well, we don't want him getting side tracked before college because he is up here, and the people he hangs out with are down here." That's pretty messed up. I've always gotten that though because all my friends are black or hispanic, and teachers HATE that. I live in one of the most racist places ever. Oh well, i bet the teacher doesn't try anything stupid again. my mom said she wanted to slap him lol

It's just very sad that in this day in age (in the United States of America) we have this kind of stereotypical thinking. I guess I figured by now there would be more tolerance. I heard the same type of stuff about latinos when I was in school. My counselor did not expect me to go to college because of my ethnic background. Well, I have a master's degree and am now working on my doctoral dissertation.... inspite of them! There were some terrific teachers who encouraged me and I'm grateful for that.

dmoney - I hope you have adult mentors around you who are positive and will encourage you and your friends to be the best you can be and not let anyone put a label on you or limit you just because of who you hang around with or your cultural or ethnic background.

That's great that your mom is such a good advocate for you. I hope your friends have mothers and fathers who feel empowered to do the same for their kids!

Peace!

yea, my parents are really strict about my grades and stuff, but it's worth it to me. i kinda like having people that try to hold me back, because that just gives me more reasons to do better than they could imagine. i just hate being judged because i'm from a neighborhood where it's either blacks or hispanics, no whites, so that's what i hang out with and who i'm comfortable with. they think i'm stupid, yet i have a 4.0 gpa.

I Opened My Eyes Now, You Are Not The Man I Thought You Were. The Man I Loved And Adored So Much. You Are The Same As Every Man You Will Never Change

Yo abri mis ojos ahora, Tu no eres el hombre you pensaba que eras. El hombre yo amaba y adoraba mucho. Tu eres el mismo hombre como todos los hombres. Tu nunca vas a cambiar

Better that way

Ya abrí mis ojos. No eres el hombre que pensé que eras. El hombre al que amaba y adoraba tanto. Eres igual que cualquier otro hombre. No cambiarás nunca.

and just so you know, if you call a girl buena, it's the same as calling her fine, so that's not a good word for a lot of contexts jaja
