Democracy to Me

To me, this photo represents democracy because each new day is an opportunity to make a change in our country. We people have this opportunity to govern ourselves and determine what is best for our nation, and each new day provides this prospect.

Democracy to Me

I think this photo represents democracy well because it shows many different people with many different viewpoints together. It demonstrates the freedom to choose and demonstrates different people coming together.

People of Wellsboro

"I'm proudest of where I am because I've just built up everything around me to just fit my own environment."

Democracy to me means having a choice. It means choosing what is best fit for yourself and what you like most. I took a picture of different movies being shown in a movie theater to demonstrate that there are options to pick from just like democracy.

Democracy to me

Democracy to me means the ability to freely express ones beliefs and opinions. Democracy allows the average person to weigh in their opinions to inform or influence others.

Democracy To Me

I think the American Flag is the largest symbol of democracy to me. It can be seen all over the country and it shows we have pride in ourselves. It reminds me of how much we fought for each one of us to have a voice and to be able to have a choice.

People of Wellsboro

I hope to go to college and move to Italy and start a business.

People of Wellsboro

I never imagined what life now would be like as a kid, it's just not something I thought about. I guess the friends I have are different from the friend group I had when I was younger. I never would have thought I would be friends with certain people

Democracy to Me

Democracy to me is the ability to live in a country where you have freedoms guaranteed to you and are able to decide what we want to do thanks to the sacrifices of the men and women of this country who fought to protect our rights.

Democracy to Me

This quaint house perfectly encapsulates democracy by demonstrating how citizens have the right to publicly support a candidate.

Democracy to me

When I think of democracy I often think of people. I saw this yearbook sign outside of my school. This made me think of democracy because people (students) are able to purchase a book full of their classmates and teachers.

People of Wellsboro

I just want to influence one person. Even if it's just one little thing, I want to do something good.
