WE CAN CHANGE THE WORLD

Santiago was fifteen years old when the war started. He lived in a small village. The women 
continued to work, while the men went away to fight. It was a strange time. It was unusual to  
hear laughter, and parties were rare. Santiago listened to the news reports every day. so many 
people were dyin, and he couldn't understand why.

Santanigo had his own opinion of the war, but no one wanted to listen to him. He thought that 
the politicians weren't doing their job. They said they wanted peace, but what they rally 
wanted was power.

"People should tell the government that they want peace," he thought. He believed that the 
people should try to change their lives.

Although Santaigo was young, people began to listen to him. Santiago kept telling them that  
they could change the world, and now they were ready to try. They talked to each other, and 
organized groups. They wrote letters to the politicians. The politicians soon discovered that 
they needed the support of the people if they didn't want to lose their jobs.
