A simple video from a 10-year-old from Pennsylvania has exploded on social media. The clip is a little over two minutes long but the message that Cassidy Warner is trying to get across is resonating across the world. The fourth-grader, from the town of Duryea, holds up cards during the video explaining who she is and that she has been bullied since the first grade.

Warner says she has been spat on, had milk spilt on her jacket and regularly gets called names. Heartbreakingly, Warner tells the world that she feels alone. Warner's mother, Jenn Slater, wrote on her Facebook page that when the Scranton School District got wind of the video, they asked for it to be removed. The clip first appeared on Warner's Facebook page. The district objected, citing Warner's age. In reposting the video, Slater said, "I will be my daughter's voice. I will share her story and hope others will share it too."
