Answer and Explanation:
"The Skin I'm In" is a story about racism, prejudice, bulling, insecurity, white supremacy, impunity, self-esteem, support, sense of belonging and self-expression. The author uses Maleeka's life and all the problems related to it and its appearance to portray such important themes that are more present in reality than what we imagine.
In relation to these themes, I do not believe that the author should modify the end of the story, or even change the end of the characters. In order to achieve the objectives of the narrative and present all these themes in a realistic way, it is necessary that each character has the ending that he had. Especially Maleeka, who presents with her mistakes, embraces her own personality and speaks the truth about the things that are happening to her, without protecting anyone out of fear or the need for friendship.
The end of each character represents the end that each archetype they represent must be in real life, so the story is identifiable and personal for all those who read it.

I believe that MLK's dream has not completely come true in present day America. He states that "my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character". However, in recent news there was a rise of police brutality that is completely on the basis of discrimination. In order for his dream to come true, there should be no possibility of anyone, or his children, being treated differently due to skin color. I am not entirely sure if this discrimination applies to all social classes, but I know that we still have work to do in obtaining this dream.
