“In my class - in all fifth-grade classes - we were required to read 'classics,' books like 'Shiloh,' which is about a white boy and the dog he rescues.

“It just means so much to me that America voted for me, and I get to see all my friends and family supporting me and crying with me.”

“When I started going to middle school, all my friends were from my hood and were like, 'Listen to Nas and 50 Cent.'”
