Muses Stories: Dear America by Mya, Grade 7

Dear America,

I am a young African American. I stand for justice. In this life, I stand for equal rights. I stand to be a powerful woman. I want to be treated the same.

Having a new president, I feel like I am denied as a woman. Trump judges us as women. I’ve been bullied and as a young girl it pushes me, but I am powerful, intelligent, and smart.

I want a better country! I stand in, and I demand justice!
