Little girl bravely shared her truth at an anti-Trump rally in Austin

"I cannot vote but that will not stop me from getting heard."

President-elect Donald Trump was celebrating on Tuesday night, but since the results have been announced, many others have done just the opposite.

Thousands of Americans headed straight to the streets of cities like Seattle, Chicago and New York City to protest the election.

Some of those protesters cannot even cast a vote—like one young girl in Austin, Texas, who used her voice to tell the crowd her story.

"Found the Trump protest rally in Austin," her mother commented on the Facebook video. "Couldn't stop her from speaking her mind..."

The video has now been seen over 8,000 times on Facebook alone and much more on Twitter.

Despite her mother's comments about how nervous she was—speak her mind she did.

"I am a female," the girl, whose age is unknown, yelled.

"I am mixed race, I am a child and I cannot vote," she continued, with each of her statements repeated and amplified by the crowd around her. "But that will not stop me from getting heard."

The crowd began cheering before she continued on with her brave message.

"Love is love," she said, "and love trumps hate."
