Perseus TayStorm Jackson
Minorities have not really been apart of stories with mythological being or what not. This is my story we're a mixed child is a main character in one of the most popular kids story. Perseus TayStorm Jackson is the son of Sally Jackson(black) and Poseidon(white). He had dark skin, sea green eyes and black nappy hair that he died the tips blonde and that is tough to handle so he leave in an Afro or cornrows. He faces injustice in the Caucasian race for being half black and African Americans don't really let him round themselves because he is white. His step-father Gabriel Ugliano is one of the worst people in his life. Facing abuse by the man has caused Percy to grow up with a lot of insecurities that Gabe brought up. Percy believes you aren't anything as long as you have rich belongs. Such as the newest Jordan's, Ray-Ban glasses, latest phones, haircut, etc. even with all the monsters that will later attack him because of the phone in his possession. Along with his materialism he forces his brain to forget the names of people he doesn't care about like the extras in a movie. He cares for him mother and himself and will put anyone in danger to save himself mostly the campers in Camp Half-blood. I am not good at writing the fights fence but pls bare with me. Percy's relationship with his father will be very strained because of the things Poseidon says. This story is very angst but has a lot of lessons or facts of what minorities face everyday and the unfairness of it. I hope you enjoy this story even with all the swearing it has.
