#I don’t think it was racist of my teacher to declare mine the winner

[loganlostitall]

Random post, but I love Mr. Rogers so much. I did a project in my senior year on him being a “historical hero” to me that won first place. It was going to go to the state-wide competition but then COVID hit. I was hella scared to present mine because everyone else was, understandably, submitting slides on MLK jr, Rosa Parks, Malcolm X, and I came in (as a Mixed kid) with a yt guy on tv who was still alive in the 2000’s. But my teacher was crazy about it and commended me for the originality/sentimentality.

We miss you. Your guidance would have been really useful in these 2020s. His last words on the show 🖤
