I Have A Dream
By: Danelle Burke
I have a dream, to end the homelessness for veterans. When the soldiers come home from fighting for our country, they come home to see they have no more money or a roof over their heads. I watched a video about a soldier that came home to his family from three years in war, keeping us safe, and he was just thrown out the door with his belongings with him. And he ended up being on the streets.
But instead of getting angry he went back to war and save over thousands of lives, so while we are being the world’s biggest jerk, they are risking their lives for us, which they are volunteering to do. What if they have families or even kids that are also thrown out the door with them?
Then I see people don’t even notice them suffering, it makes me cry to see how mean people are to each other, and to think these men and women are risking their lives everyday to keep us safe, and we treat them like trash.
That’s why I have a dream to end homelessness for our soldiers.
