题文

And it changed my beliefs — it changed the way I felt about mylf and my community. I worked hard with others who felt the same way, and together, we defeated the plan.After that, I realized it's just as important to fight for something as it is to fight against something. So we dreamed up a new park on the site of an illegal waste dump — and after many community clean-ups, along with $3 million from the city, we have one. And it's a glory. It was the ed from which many new plans for our community have grown.Today, the South Bronx is no longer a stain; it's a badge(象征) of honor for me.
