Tin Man

The tin man doesn’t have a heart, sometimes I can be mean and cruel to my little sister and it doesn’t seem like i have a heart. The tin man is also very loving although he doesn’t have a heart. I love my mom and step dad, My sister, Brother And my grandparents. Last but not least the tin-man is brave. I am brave. I am quick to stand up for myself and what I believe in.

Everyday i wake up i'm very self conscience about myself. I think i either look to fat, my clothes don't look right, my hair…

Immigrants come to America in hopes of finding and achieving the “American Dream”. Some do end up achieving this goal, but for a majority of immigrants, they are faced with racism and discrimination because of their culture.
