#wjpsnews Reflection of the 2020-2021 School Year

[World Journalism @WJPSPC]

So proud of the Class of 2021! ♥️

Ma’Khia Bryant. We say her name.

Another Black life stolen. But we refuse to define or remember Ma’Khia by her final moments.

We uplift, celebrate & honor this Black child for what she loved- doing her hair, making Tik Toks, having fun. Just being a teen.

Rest in power, Queen.
