Traditional
dancer,
so
this
shows
like
Who
I,
am
and
where
I
come
from,
and
also
they
look
at
me
like
God
made
them
here
excited
they
will
stand
at
shows
like
where
I
am
I
come
from.
So
does
make
me
so
happy
because
we
are
immigrants
we
come
from
like
different
country.
Oh
my
god,
Jeremy
my
country,
young.
C
Today
and
to
all
the
adults
at
this
school
in
Boston,
Public
Schools,
thank
you
for
creating
safe,
welcoming
and
sustaining
learning
environments.
Our
young
people's
racial,
cultural
and
linguistic
identities
have
to
be
maintained.
They
have
to
be
sustained.
That's
what's
going
to
make
us
more
powerful.
As
a
country,
you.
D
Took
a
situation
that
was
scary,
that
was
sad.
That
would
make
people
angry
and
you
turned
it
into
a
beautiful
piece
of
art,
20
or
destruction
arrived.
You
tell
the
story
of
who
we
are
as
a
country,
but
I
want
to
thank
everyone
in
this
room.
Would
anything
to
do
with
helping
this
mural
be
put
on
this
wall,
but
they
need
to
be
created
and
I
want
to
thank
everyone
for
being
here
today
and
being
part
of
a
stressful
day.
Give
the
city
of
ours.
