He was talking to a group of white latino and black graduates. I knew the white kids had parents with $

#studentloanforgiveness I knew I didn't. It took me 5 immigrants to go to that one white school. Tons of my peers are in massive debt, crippled honestly, so no one dreams. I foreshadowed my post-collegiate life. Hello Depression. That's when I learned about mental health.

#studentloanforgiveness Obama gave me hope. He let us stay on our parents medical insurance. They took my gallbladder out. It cost 95K. If I had to add that to my already 70K student loan debt…at the age of 23 I would have been 165K in debt.

2011. #studentloanforgiveness I met my now husband and found love. He said, why don't we really try this #Hollywood thing. I had literally nothing to lose and everything to gain. My depression subsided. My bipolar invited. And I went back to my basic form. Entertaining.

#studentloanforgiveness In 2013 we signed with an agent. In 2015 I went to LA for the first time in my life, alone, I lied and told my grandma I would met friends but I went alone. I did visit UCLA Law school. But I spent more time on the stars. I saw myself differently.

#studentloanforgiveness In 2016, I made a vow to myself and to God that I would not be silent. I started on snapchat, bc it would erase after 24 hrs, not that brave. I started documenting everything I could on camera. I wrote a documentary about young entrepreneurs in NYC.

#studentloanforgiveness I launched an online blogging career, I wrote for multiple outlets, I found a way to get in the way, and after the Clinton lost, I went to D.C. My voice only got stronger, louder, witty-er. It wasn't only the Black that was a threat, but also, the lady.

#studentloanforgiveness After more research and Elizabeth Warren's plan, I knew the only way was political. I mean, I owed the government for what they sent to LIU Post back in 2005-2010, even though the same government bailed out banks in 2008-2010, but didn't bother to call me

#studentloanforgiveness Sallie Mae harassed my grandma. I sued them for harassment. I also logged formal complaints against the school and the loan servicers explaining that my degree is invaluable, why do I owe you.

#studentloanforgiveness The Federal government has done nothing to rescue the millions of Americans who are in debt because there were no jobs available 6 months post-grad to pay back said loans in 2008-2010.

The argument against this rule is that it does nothing to help those Americans who paid off their loans without help and it doesn't do anything to help the next generation of American college goers. So because it DOESN'T help everyone, it's not important? #studentloanforgiveness
