Brooke opens up about her thoughts and beliefs

By Joseph H. from Texas High School in Texas

“I believe that you can do whatever you please as long as it does not hurt me or anybody else. And that goes for sexuality, just literally like anything. I don't care if you're gay or whatever. I don't care if you don't like kids, if you're a Christian if you're Buddhist. I'm a firm believer that you do what makes you happy. And I'm forever going to live by that though.”

My idea of democracy

This image represents democracy to me in its simplest form: Voting. Voting is not only the core of democracy itself but the very thing that makes democracy so great. The opinion of the people matter and that's what this represents.

I have always thought to myself something that terrified me. When you die, your name will once be said for the last time. I've had an epiphany that as long as you find people you are happy to be around, it will be a very long time until that happens.

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.
