Apparently from my experience trying to raise awareness; this was not the right day, nor the right time, nor the the right way. It should have been better organized, with a clear leader, and precise demands. Also, it was doomed to fail for reasons I can’t specify. /s
Precise demands? I’m not sure of much of anything school administration could do. If my students walked out in protest I certainly couldn’t change anything way above my paygrade. But I wouldn’t discourage them.
Organization? They seem to have organized a school walk out, pretty organized imo.
Right time/day? Seems fitting enough. Might not ammount to much but it will garner attention for thier cause, and day, MLK day is in part about what he helped represents, disenfranchised americans having thier voice heard. These kids organized to have thier voice heard, seems on point
There are otehr ways to demonstrate, yes, but this is a way. At the end of the day they are exercising theier voice. Something with rpos and cons, but with the state of our democracy, Something that should be encouraged.
A very important badge now because unfortunately, and i’ve met people, as im sure you have, who can say that with a completely straight face with no irony.
