Dear Freedom Fighters Around The Globe

Like No One Before
I don’t want to be like the people who came before. With all due respect, their journey wasn’t mine. I have it much easier than they did and I want to honor that by recognizing it. I know that my life is easier today because I am an adult than it was when I was…
