The 6-word story I chose was “Nobody is illegal on stolen land”. The reason I chose this story was because I felt like this saying is very important and it should be talked about more. White men came here a long time ago and stole our land so what sense does it make for them to claim something that was never theirs in the first place? It frustrates me more than anything to hear people preach about “making America great again” while destroying families and displacing brown immigrants when they themselves are immigrants as well. The double standard of white immigrants having the ‘right’ to treat brown immigrants as less than when they are the ones who have built America up and helped our country in so many ways is actually the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.
