A Girl's Life
"Art became a visual way for me to express emotions that were sometimes too hard to put into words."
-- Jazz Jennings, 2016
Self Expression
Jazz Jennings has been using her talent to express herself since she was a young girl. Through song, drawing, poetry, memoir, and activism, she tells us who she really is.
"Glorious Day" by Jazz Jennings
There was a day
–a glorious day
–aya when I knew I wasn't who I really was
–for I was a boy
–when I was supposed to be a girl
I am myself
Yes I am myself
And I'm gonna flie through the sky
or swim in the sea to be whoever I want to be (twice)
Oo–oooo–ooo
I'm gonna try as hard as I
could to change my childhood
I'm going to fight for my rights
Cause that's the kind of person I am
I am, I am, I am |
