I’ve Tweeted RIP hashtags, reblogged pictures on Tumblr, and signed every petition out there. I always said that if I saw it happen to somebody, I would have the loudest voice, making sure the world knew what went down.
Now I am that person, and I’m too afraid to speak.” This quote shows how you can never prepare for anything no matter how much you tell yourself you will be prepared.]]> 2018-08-24 20:11:33 UTC https://padlet.com/colton_crooks83/qqrvhk9hz2jq/wish/275262256 colton_crooks83 https://padlet.com/colton_crooks83/qqrvhk9hz2jq/wish/275264778 I chose this article because it makes me think how many people were going through the same thing as Starr Carter ]]> 2018-08-24 20:23:41 UTC https://padlet.com/colton_crooks83/qqrvhk9hz2jq/wish/275264778 colton_crooks83 https://padlet.com/colton_crooks83/qqrvhk9hz2jq/wish/275268012 This quote makes me think about the picture below, “Don’t let them put words in your mouth.
