The third‚ while I do enjoy it a little‚ would be for no more school. I love my teachers‚ but no work that would rule! I would wish for more wishes so I could have whatever I want. I could have clothes‚ jewelry‚ and a trillion treasure hunts. I would never be bored or with nothing to do. I could wish for Kings Dominion just to ride “Scooby

This truly shows us how unfair it was for African Americans just because of their colour
