A Simple Request: The Rights of the Black Child

January 31, 2021

Black children have a right to a peaceful education, free from racism and discrimination.

So, we have a simple request.

Respect our rights

Sstop policing me in school.

Let me be a child.

Let me make mistakes and learn from them.

Stop suspending me for  things you don’t suspend my friends for.

See me. Root for me. Believe in me

Expect great things of me. 

Give me the grades I deserve.

Give me a chance.

My future is bright; help me reach for the stars

Most of all, know that I matter too.
