    About this ebook

    My main rule was that I wouldn't be called "Mista" I thought the students would show me respect if they identified me as a person and not just any white guy they had to listen to in school. I introduced myself as Mr. Kaminski and wrote my name on the chalkboard. I asked the students to repeat if I mispronounced them.
