I’d be lying if I didn’t say Ive been preparing for this speech my whole life...but it’s still a huge shock so bear with me. Okay. So here I am. I know people always say they’ve dreamt about this moment since they were a kid or whatever. I seriously did, though. Like, Ive pretended I was giving this speech more times than I can count, except my audience was a bunch of stuffed animals instead of a real life audience. Its been my dream to be miss america since I first saw my favorite movie, miss congeniality, when I was little. Then one day the opportunity came along and boom! The next thing I know im standing here wearing a miss nm sash when I hear the hosts voice saying, “and our new miss America is…. Miss new

    Born in Syracuse, New York, and raised in Oklahoma and Michigan, it is hard to pick a more American story than that of Davuluri. The daughter of Indian doctors who immigrated to the United States in the early 1980s, Miss America embodies all ideas of the great American Dream. But an uneducated public is trying to crush that dream with their negativity. Misidentifying Davuluri as Muslim, Arab, Egyptian, and Indonesian, among other ethnicities, Twitter users did not just stop at proclaiming that, essentially, non-white participants of the pageant should be disqualified. They also linked her to terrorist organizations, such as Al Qaeda. Some took it even further, outraged that she should be crowned in the same week as September 11. Those who correctly acknowledged her Indian heritage made racist jokes, playing on the stereotype that Indian-Americans often work in the grocery and food industries.…

They saw the pretty, blonde haired, blue eyed white girls from the Miss America contest and tried to be like them so they could fit in and be accepted by their peers. On top of that, their parents wouldn’t allow them to be the All American Girl they longed to become.…
