My Declaration Against Sexism

When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for people to dissolve their bonds with ignorance and close-minded opinions. To rid themselves from the self entitlement that clouds their way of thinking and prevents their point of view to reach greater heights. The over-Sexualization of  women as we should conform to the ways […]

Declaration of Independence from Donald Trump …

  This is Declaration of Independence from Donald Trump… All citizens of America are equal, have rights, and are free, but if Donald Trump becomes president we will lose that freedom.

We seek independence from Police Brutality

We can seek our independence from the police, who are supposed to protect us, but have done little but cause pain and injustice. They are the reason for some of the injustice going on in this country; some of them think that just because they wear a badge that they can take us to jail and […]

Every young individual who desires to pursue higher education should have the right to do so without any unnecessary barriers. Today, America ranks #12 in the world for […]

Declaration for Making Higher Education More Attainable

Higher education should be more attainable to everyone. Education is the sole reason why the American Dream is still deemed as achievable. Without education we would not be as advanced as we are today nor would we be as civilized. I have been able to rise far beyond my means because of it. Getting your […]

Declaration of Grievances against Congress

The Congress of the United States, our elected “representatives”: -shirked their responsibilities under the Constitution, delegating the coining of money to private vendors, to the detriment of the Nation and the People’s well being.-allowed the Executive to pursue a long train of undeclared foreign wars, for the benefit of themselves and their monied interests, costing […]
