It is the week after graduation, someone (me, haha) is feeling nostalgic yet so ready for the future. With reflection comes bookmarking/making a mark/memory/, which is why I am leaving this with you all.

This video was supposed to be uploaded yesterday aka Monday because of ‪#‎Mondaysshouldnotbemundane‬ and now it's FINALLY UP. YAY. Which means... it can go for ‪#‎TalktomeTuesday‬ ? I think so. PLEASE watch my speech since you are in sight of it. This moment was too priceless to not share. I thank you guys in advance.

“Do you believe that your history/social studies education shaped your worldview? Do you think your education would have been incomplete without the study of history, geography, and civics? If so, come testify at Monday's City Council Hearing on the state of history in the Boston Public Schools. Fewer and fewer students are getting access to a strong history education provided by qualified teachers. We need your help to get history back to its full capacity! Monday, 3pm, 5th floor at City Hall!” 

^was the message I received from my middle school civics teacher Ms. Avashia. My response to the message was “Yes.Yes..YAS, of course!!” [basically, jk the real response was below]

“Yes Yes Yes!!!! Monday as in next week the 9th? If so, PLEASE save me a seat because I would love to have the honor of speaking on behalf of the system and students.”

...So Monday came and this happened. 

*start at 1:36:45 (this is what I give my two cents) THEN

*start at 1:47:00 (this is the segway to the group photo of women that are currently running the world, one step, one speech and one day at a time)

I felt so honored and appreciated at that moment because my voice was actually heard by leaders of Boston today. It was empowering to have sat in those seats because it gave me a feel of surreal problems in the small system of schools we live in. I remember the second time I met Tito Jackson (which was last summer, I wrote a post about him through another source--which you can find by looking at the first post in the “political life” tab) a quote that really stuck by me said by him was, “If you are not at the table you are on the table.”
