A Threatening Life

By: Aline O.
Oregon, Age 11


I do not think that I could live one day in the threatening life of Melba Patillo. If today things are not perfect, I can imagine what she went through! Melba Patillo should be an honored woman for she is, brave,dedicated, and overall is proud of who she is! Even today doing my homework can be srtessing, and hard. Changing something that has been around for quite a while, is an act of courage. I can say nothing but wonderfull things about Melba Patillo!
