Our America
by YEE participant Marifer
In our America, I want us to be proud of who we are. If our skin is brown, tan, black or white, we should feel proud of it.
….Of our sexual orientation… If we like men, women, or whoever!
….If we come from an immigrant family or have lived here since we were born…
...Of our gender! If we are a man, woman, or non-binary, we should feel proud of it.
In our America, I want us to get to choose
who we want to be,
what religion each of us wants to follow,
what job we want to get,
what we want to study,
who we want to marry, if at all.
I want us to all have the opportunities
to get a job,
go to college,
and raise a family if we wish.
I want there to be
peace and justice, and freedom and equality
for everybody.
In our America.
In our world.
On our beautiful earth!
