In Defense of Student Activism

By • Dec 7th, 2010 • Category: Blogs, Features

We have to ask ourselves, what conditions would make us rage? We don’t rage when we comfortably watch the sensationalized news of a reporter too excited to get the scoop. We don’t rage against the news of the budget cut when it’s sandwiched between commercials of our favorite celebrities. We don’t rage against the violence committed against our farmers when it’s shown to us in class and we need to write an essay on it to get a grade. We rage only when we, ourselves, are held tight, suffocating. We rage when we see disorder, when we are in disorder. Thus, our cry is to heighten this disorder. The atrocities done cannot be countered by silence.

In a time of great deceit, we choose to walkout for honor. In a time of lavish spending, we choose to walkout for austerity. In a time of apathy, we choose to walkout for social significance. In a time when the state’s abandonment of the people’s welfare is at its peak, the youth chooses to stand steadfast against this administration’s continuous neglect.
