Kyana has been given the topic "hate crimes" for an essay. She writes in her
journal, “I have never been the victim of a hate crime, but when my uncle came
out as gay ten years ago, he was fired from his position as a security officer.
They claimed it was work-related, but didn't say anything specific. At the time,
it was too expensive for my uncle to sue them, so he just got a different job."
How does this journal entry relate to her essay topic?

This journal entry relates to the essay topic because Kyana’s uncle had a hate crime against him. right when he came out as gay, he got fired, and for no specific reason. Since he couldn’t afford it, they couldn’t prove why they exactly fired him, but it would most likely be because whoever he worked for didn’t appreciate that his uncle was gay. it’s not a real crime, but its a hate crime, where something bad or illegal happens to you just because someone doesn't appreciate something about you.
