Dear Human,
Yesterday evening, Saturday September
13, 2014, approximately 6:40 pm a man, (in his late twenties early thirties,
slim built, approximately 5 feet 4 inches tall, dark complexion, wearing dark
colors), knocked on the door of my apartment. My brother opened the door. The
man asked for Luis Perez and said that he is from the Department of Education.
My brother reasonably requested to see some identification. The man refused to
show his identification so my brother respectfully told him that he cannot help
him unless he can show him identification. The man said okay you can close the
door.
Today, approximately 12:30 pm, on her
way out of my apartment, my mother discovers a stack of papers taped to my door.
Note:
The space between my door and the floor measures 1 ½ centimeters across. The
stack of papers (22 sheets of 8 ½ by 11 inches) measures to less than ¼ of a
centimeter.
The man whom represents the Department
of Education (and the Amistad Dual Language School Administrators) scotch-tapped
to my door with no envelope, for all my neighbors (and people visiting the
building) to witness, the 3020a charges by the Department of Education that
were filed by the Amistad Dual Language School Administrators.
The
front page alone clearly exposed my name, date of birth, and social security
number for over 17 hours, to my neighbors and visitors to the building. The
front page also clearly exposed the name and address of the Amistad Dual
Language School,
the principal’s name, and the charges brought against me.
There is clearly enough space beneath
my door to slip the stack of papers into my apartment (or the man could have
simply handed them over to my brother). Instead, this representative of the Department
of Education and of the Amistad Dual Language School Administrators had tapped this
document to my door without an envelope with malicious intent.
This personal information was exposed
to my neighbors and visitors to my building for over 17 hours, on a Saturday
evening when there was a lot of people going in and out of the building due to
several different special festive gatherings that went on to the late morning
hours.
What thoughts would be running through your head if you were the target to
such vile harassment? How long before you find yourself on the brink?
Sincerely,
Luis Ángel Perez, Educator
