Wright's Speech

I feel that Wright should have said his own speech, and that he had every right to. Why would you even bother letting a black man speak, if you are just going to make his speech up for him. So what if Wright said something controversial, the point is that he has every right to make his own speech, even if the audience hates it. He is at the top of his class, and deserves to say his own speech. Even though the principal was trying to look out for Wright's best interest, I still think that he should've been able to say the speech he'd written. I would want to say a speech that I wrote myself, that would be a time where I could say my how I felt and express myself. Wright didn't want to say the speech that principal had given, because it meant nothing to him. I think that Wright was justified in refusing to say the speech that the Principal gave him.
