A PROTEST AGAINST THE PROTEST

Written by @Dahlak Brathwaite. (Click Link Above)



In regards to the 
Occupy Movement and other various youth uprisings happening across America and the world: I refer you to a truly thought-provoking write up from Dahlak Brathwaite’s blog about modern-day protesting. Though it was in reference to the UCD tuition hikes 2 years ago before the Occupy movement was started - or before students were pepper sprayed on the very campus that this article references - the points still stand so firmly today. I still revisit this brilliant post every now & again and this time around I would like to share it with you.

I sincerely admire my generation’s fervor and ability to unite for a worthy cause on such a wide scale but I think it’s far beyond time to re-evaluate, re-focus and rejuvenate the efforts in order to make some real progress; I believe this article can really steer you in the right direction.

Please read the following article in it’s entirety. Thank you.
