Etan Thomas Presents: Voices of the Future

Write alongside NBA player/poet Etan Thomas. For anyone age 13-25 who can imagine a better future.

This project is for people age 13 to 25 interested in writing about their future. What issues are important to you—the war in Iraq, HIV/AIDS, race? How have these and other problems affected you directly? And how would you solve them? NBA player, poet, and activist Etan Thomas leads this project as contributor and editor. Write your poem or tell your story here and be considered for publication. To learn more, click here: http://www.webook.com/landing/Etan-Thomas-Presents-Voices-of-Our-Future

I was wondering what kinds of poetry you were putting into this book. I can possibly offer a few pieces, but am not going to just throw myself at someones project. If you would like, you can read any works in my projects and decide from there, whether or not you want my input.

        I want to
                                I know I will

        I want to finish highschool with grades good enough to go to Harvard.
        I want to go to Harvard and study law so that when I grow up I can make a change as big as president Barak Obama did.
        When I grow up I want to be not only the first woman president, but also the first Latina president of the U.S.A.
        I want to help the environment and stop global warming.
        I want to help stray animals that are being left on the street everyday because someone doesn't want them anymore.
        I want to help stop the violence in homes.
        I want to help families so they actually stay together for more than a year.
        No it's not I want to it's I know I will.

hurray for me being 13. I already included 4 of my writings. I can't wait to see what the future brings us. I have a lot of years ahead of me and I can't wait to see what I can do!
