It's His Choice

By Vish V

"It's his choice" is a single short story for quick, half an hour read. It 's about a teen who chose the wrong path of racism. What are the troubles and consequences he had to face? Did he find a solution to his problem? What did he eventually realize? What did he choose in the end?
This is my first story I wrote few years back. So, please excuse me for any mistakes. I made it really simple and brief by writing in a more 'story telling' style. This is a long story trimmed to just above 4000 words. the reason i did that is because I didn't want to bore the readers with elaborate story writing in a 'wrong way'.
Reviews and suggestions from readers and other authors will be appreciated. I want to know if you think i'm good enough to continue writing novels, Thank you.

The black and white communities are said to be at an equal level despite institutional racism being practiced everywhere. For every poisonous plant that has grown, there has to be that someone who planted the seed. In the same way, for every change in the civilization, there has to be that someone who lit the spark.

Born in a rich and respectful white family to Joseph Carter, an established business man in the state of Florida, and Emily Carter, John was expected to grow up in his father’s footsteps. Right from the start, his parents taught him good things and tried to make him a better person in the society. They wanted John to be a man of high morals and qualities. But, it’s not in someone else’s hands but our own
