pros and cons of embodying the "be polite" persona,
how not speaking up in a potentially dangerous situation made her realize the importance of using her voice,
how fear made her conflict avoidant,
the approach she takes when speaking up for herself with people she doesn’t know, and
how she uses writing as a form of using her voice.
