Focused Hillary Read 3-5 minutes
"Hillary Faces Her
Toughest Interviewer Yet―11-Year-Old Marley Dias ~
The presidential candidate
talks middle school insecurities, bad haircuts, and desert-island
essentials.
When I was really little,
I wanted to be our first woman president. I always knew I want to be
the kind of grownup who makes people's lives better. And since that's
pretty much the job of the President of the United States, it seemed
like a good idea.
But I've realized that you
don't have to be very old to start trying to fix the problems you see
in the world around you. (I'm 11.) That's why I created
#1000BlackGirlBooks, a book drive to collect stories about young
black girls. I wanted to be represented in books and show people that
it's possible to create spaces to be seen and represented.
Hillary Clinton is someone
who's never waited around for someone else to do the hard work. She's
been an organizer and a change-maker for her whole life practically.
But people don't really talk a lot about what she did when she was a
kid like me. It turns out she's always been an activist. She's always
wanted to make a difference.
I know, because I asked
her! I emailed Hillary Clinton to find out what she was like when she
was in middle school, why she loves her favorite books, and what
happened when she got one really bad haircut. (I once cut off a big
piece of my ponytail, so I know what it's like.)
She has shaped the way I
think about my future, because so many of the qualities she has now
are ones that I want to have when I get older. It makes me so excited
that she could become our first woman president. If someone had to do
it before I could, I'm happy that it will be her. It's really no
problem.
Reading our interview, I
think it's very obvious that Hillary Clinton can be deep and funny at
the same time. Sometimes, we expect a woman like her to be really
serious always, but I want people to understand that she can talk
about deep issues and chocolate, and that's okay. She's a real
person—just like I am, just like my mom is, just like you are.
She's not just a presidential nominee. She's a friend. She's human!
And her favorite black girl book is I Know Why the Caged Bird
Sings by Maya Angelou, which is an excellent choice. ... "
