Read the text and choose what genre could be

Like some days you might say something stupid, and that's the part of you that's still ten. Or maybe some days you might need to sit on your mama's lap because you're scared, and that's the part of you that's five. And maybe one day when you're all grown up maybe you will need to cry like if you're three, and that's okay. That's what I tell Mama when she's sad and needs to cry. Maybe she's feeling three. Because the way you grow old is kind of like an onion or like the rings inside a tree trunk or like my little wooden dolls that fit one inside the other, each year inside the next one. That's how being eleven years old is.

What got you into advocating for racial justice?

Taylor Enterline: When I was 18, there was an incident in Lancaster where a police officer had tasered a man while he was sitting on the curb. And that year, I had faced a lot of racism and my eyes were opened, especially after the 2016 election. So I started interning at Lancaster Stands Up, and I continued with racial justice and gender justice, especially in my studies. And then in May, after George Floyd, that's when the gears switched.

That wasn't the first for many Black Americans. I remember Trayvon Martin, Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, and no one was talking about it at school because all of these students were majority white and it didn't affect them in any way. Racial justice doesn't stop because I can't change the color of my skin when I walk out the front door. They see me as a Black woman and I still have to fight for myself in the spaces that I am in. So I'm fighting for those who are affected by police brutality, and I used to say I was fortunate enough not to be touched by that. And then that quickly it became a reality for me.
