Draft #2

 Page 1:

 Once upon a time there was a girl named Ashiebah. Ashiebah was a 9 years old muslim girl. She was quiet and didn’t talk to many people, she loves to read and doesn’t like to speak outloud.  Ashiebah went to a public elementary school. Ashiebah didn’t have many friends in her school, but she never got teased. Until one day……

Page 2:

 Ashiebah was sitting down reading when these two girls Jamie and Samantha were introduced to her class. As Ashiebah was reading her book the two girls came to her and said "Why do you wear that yucky thing on your head?!" Ashiebah just stood quiet then they laughed and walked away.

The next day, Ashiebah arrived at school when all of a sudden she gets a water balloon thrown at her head. Ashiebah turned around crying. She seen the same two new girls Jamie and Samantha. Ashiebah turned back around and ran straight to the bathroom. Ashiebah hid in the bathroom all day. She was afraid that if she came back out everyone would start to tease her.

 Then at the end of the day she finally came out for recess. She sat down all the way in the corner and read her book. Then she noticed Jamie and Samantha  coming over to her. When they got to her they just stood there looking at her. Asheibah looked up slowly and the two girls started laughing and pointing at her.

 "What an ugly scarf!"said Jamie to Samantha

 Asheibah started to cry.

Page 5:

 "Hey LEAVE HER ALONE!" shouted a tiny voice.

 Jamie and Samantha turned around and they saw Alex. Alex is also a girl in Ashiebah’s class. Alex is independent and likes to read. But she isn’t afraid to speak outloud or stand up for herself

"That isn’t funny at all, Ashiebah is wearing that scarf because it’s her religion!" "Who do you guys think you are to be making fun of her ?!"

Then Ashiebah stood up and said,

" Yea i have to wear this because i am not allowed to show my hair to boys, its against my religion." "Can you please stop ... it really hurts my feelings." Jamie and Samantha were shocked to hear Ashiebah say something to them. Then Alex walked next to Ashiebah and told her,

"Don’t worry I don’t think you look weird , I think you look pretty and i actually like your scarf." Then Alex took Ashiebah’s hand and they walked away.

Sexual Assault
http://www.commerce.wa.gov/site/261/default.aspx
       
 I did some research on sexual assault . Ofcourse i think its just PLAIN WRONG ! Sexual assault can include child sexual abuse, rape, attempted rape, incest, exhibitionism, voyeurism, obscene phone calls, fondling, and sexual harassment. I have friends that have been sexually assaulted and i have myself. But my experience wasnt as bad as others. I just got chased by a man (not THAT bad,sarcasm). it was kind of scary and i did go to the precinct and file a report . Now i can imagine how much worse things are for other children that have gotten raped or sexually abused. Now a days most kids travel home alone . Its ashame that kids have to feel uncomfortable going home from a long day of school in there neighborhood.
        I watch alot of realistic shows like law and order and NCSI. These shows make me think alot about my surroundings and what to look out for. I like to see these shows especially when a person my age is in it. Usually these shiws are about sexual assault and serious life problems. When these shows are on they arent just for entertainment they are for people to learn about what goes on in the real world and the horrible things people to to one another.
        I dont want to sound all "holy" or anything but we are all brothers and sisters in our world (living in a big house). By this i mean we should treat eachother like so. All the dirty men or women out there , when they attack children ....what do they think? I think they should think if they're nieces and nephews. Or there family members. They should be ashamed of themselves. What does there family think of them? Why do some of them get away with it?

Hate crimes
http://psychology.ucdavis.edu/rainbow/html/hate_crimes.html

Okay ,well i did some research on hate crimes and i just think its wrong. They way people are treated just because of there life styles . Some people even got killed for that. I think people that dont agree with someones life style should keep it to themselves, i dont think some should be punished for living their life. But apperently there are alot of people in this world that disagree with me.One big thing that people get made fun of about is being a homosexual. Some people think thjat god made us to like the same sex. But some people might not think that is true. And i think that what ever someone chooses is just how they think of it.
Another thing that people are punished for are people that have certain religions that require to dress differently or act differently or speak differently than an average person. I think people should be allowed to dress however they feel or speak however they want to speak (as long as its not negative). Including to the religion , alot of muslim girls get teased because of the head scarf also known as a hijab they wear on their heads. I think those girls shouldnt get teased because number 1, they dont have a choice because there parents make them . Number 2, i think they shouldnt get teased because its against their religion and in their bible it is told that if they sin ; which means they cant show their hair then they will go to hell. So if you arfe reading this and u like to make fun of others because of how they dress or how ever they choose to be then , you should really think about this.
