My story comes from the rush of immigrants, comes from the wars we faced even before we were apart of the country. People mattered, but we couldn't see that, we were blinded with prejudice that took centuries to turn. Keeping this story alive is the most important to make sure we don't repeat it. It should be talked about with the most care for details every single one should be taught.
