Alright so I plan on starting a GSA this fall when I start my senior year, and I wrote this speech just in case I needed it. What do you think?
We Need A GSA~ A speech written by Thailer Hayes D.
My opinion may not matter to you but it matters to someone. Someone out there needs someone to support them. To love them when their family has declared that they won’t. I can live losing the people I thought loved me. I’ve done it my whole life. My best friend dying, my “mother” abandoning me a thousand times, some of my friends leaving, I lived through this all. Alone. But some other people can’t. They can’t lose those people. I can’t replace the people they lost, but I can promise that I will never leave them for anything like religion, race, sexuality, etc. Because those things shouldn’t matter. They shouldn’t bother people. These people deserve the world, they deserve love, they deserve respect, they deserve support, something I’m willing to give a million times over. Because how can I support myself and not support another? I wouldn’t be able to live with myself. And anyone out there who doesn’t accept people who are different how do you live with yourself? When you know that what you say can kill people. When you know that you’re wrong. I will never be like you. Ever. And if I’m specific I’ll never be my dad. Because my dad doesn’t accept me. My dad doesn’t accept that I’m transgender, that I’m different. My “Dad” says I’ll never be in a real relationship. My “Dad” says I’m mutilating my body. If you support trans people stand up. If you don’t care, stand up. You are the reason I’m strong. Because without people like you I’d give up and let my dad pressure me into being a girl. Because of you I’m able to accept myself for who I am and not be ashamed. I want to build a place, a group of people, a club here in Headland High School so kids like me have somewhere to go to when their family doesn’t accept them, I want to give them a safe place to go during break every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I want to give them hope. This school deserves a Gay-Straight Alliance and I’m willing to lead one. All I need is 4 other people to join me in this club gay, straight, cis, trans, etc. So that I can provide that safe space, so WE can give hope. So….. who’s with me?

Read this excerpt from leo tolstoy's the death of ivan ilyich her attitude towards him and his diseases is still the same just as the doctor had adopted a certain relation to his patient which he could not abandon, so had she formed one towards him—that he was not doing something he ought to do and was himself to blame, and that she reproached him lovingly for this--and she could not now change that attitude. "you see he doesn't listen to me and doesn't take his medicine at the proper time. and above all he lies in a position that is no doubt bad for him.- with his legs up" she described how he made gerasim hold his legs up the doctor smiled with a contemptuous affability that said"what's to be done? these sick people do have foolish fancles of that kind, but we must forgive them they all rose, said good-night and went away when they had gone it seemed to ivan ilyich that he felt better, the falsity had gone with them. but the pain remained--that same pain and that same fear that made everything monotonously alike, nothing harder and nothing easier. everything was worse again minute followed minute and hour followed hour everything remained the same and there was no cessation. and the inevitable end of it all became more and more terrible based on the excerpt, how is praskovya fedorovna a character foil to ivan ilyich? a. she is kind and takes care of ivan, which is why he feels guilty about how he treated her for most of their married life • b. she is vindictive toward ivan while pretending to be worried about him, thus reminding him of how his family has never forgiven him she plays the part of the worried wife without any real feeling, symbolizing the false propriety ivan upheld but now hates c. d. she is young, healthy, and beautiful-everything ivan can never be again and wishes he could return to
