December 9th, 2020. Dear Trump,

My name is Victoria Ekanem. I attend Friendship Blow Pierce located on Benning Road in Northeast DC. I have something I want to talk to you about! I don’t like the way you treat people. You make them feel less of a person when you say rude comments. You send police officers to peaceful protests and this causes many protesters to get hurt.

To better support the community, you should listen to the protesters and not hurt them. Also, you could use positive words when speaking instead of saying mean things you should be nice and fight for what is right.

Victoria Ekanem is a fifth grade scholar at Friendship Blow Pierce Academy.
