I'm a sophomore in high school and I just found out that we have a new Supreme Court justice. This makes me think back on last month when I was leaving the gym. It was 8:30pm and I get a text from my mom that she's in the car waiting for me. So I'm walking out, and there's this man following me. I get really scared and it comes to the point where I have to start running because this man is so close. I got inside the car and my mom asks me , "Are you OK? Did something happen?" I didn't know how to respond in that moment but I thought: Maybe if society didn't have these norms that women are objects or that they can be assaulted and no consequences will happen to the men, I wouldn't have to feel this way. But I do. And it's a prevalent problem for women. I'm too young to vote and I don't have that power, but I do go out and I canvass and I register young voters. If you have the power to vote, please vote on my behalf. If you can promise to vote for me, that would be so great.
