Network Post; Anakin Solo
For those of you whom I haven't yet had the opportunity to meet, I'm Anakin Solo and I’m running for the position of Youth Representative on the Tenant Board for Potts Tower.
I’ve had the privilege of talking to people from a number of different worlds in the nearly seven months I have been here. Most of these worlds are very different from my own, but in those conversations I’ve also found ways to relate through shared experiences despite our dissimilar origins. I’ve found amazingly good friends in this Tower – people who will support their neighbours and this world even though it isn’t their home. We’re all a long ways from our homes and that makes our lives here a challenge in some way or another, but one thing I've realized I can count on is that throughout the challenges I have consistently found that people are willing to help.
For me one of those challenges has been being told that I’m too young when for over a year at home I'm working alongside adults and others my age to make our galaxy a better place. But I believe the work I did at home as a Jedi with people of all ages and backgrounds makes this position an ideal fit. I'm used to seeking understanding between disparate backgrounds and voices and working alongside others to resolve conflicts.
I would be honored to have your vote and the opportunity to help current residents and new arrivals in this community. If you have questions, or want to get to know me better, I’ll be on the thirteenth floor Wednesday evening with brownies. Feel free to come and grab one and say hi.
