I loved this thoughtful essay by a 16-year old girl from Palmer, Alaska. It’s so good I don’t want to cut and paste part of it and take any of it out of context. If you have a couple minutes, please read it.
With a few moments reflection, maybe that Subject Line was a bit over the top, but it’s still good to know that even in the midst of racism and hatred, some young people are not swayed by hateful peers and understand the principles of decency.
That’s damn good writing for a 16-year-old.
I read this as “bright shining bacon”. Mmm, bacon. Nice essay, too.
Is the site down? It’s not coming up for me.
