Our
society has a sickness. It's called Inequality and it's caused by
people thinking they're better than others. These beliefs provoke
envy and fear and they lead to people having to live their lives in
dire poverty.
We are
all infected with Inequality because in the place where we go to
learn about work and the world we are taught it. We are taught that
some of us are 'bright' and 'high achieving'. Some of those kids are
jealously bullied, but there's a payoff for them at the end. Most of
us are taught that we are average, which makes school tolerable but
numbingly dull. And a poor, sad few of us are taught that we are the
bottom, the worst.
It's
time to say enough. Enough of a school system that discourages and
divides and humiliates us. Time to rise up in peaceful protest to
shatter the mental chains they bind us with. It's time for the
Revolution of the Heart.
Understand,
if we are to succeed, it must be a revolution of the heart. We must
look inside ourselves and heal whatever inequalities we find. When we
greet our brother and sister citizens as equals, then we shall be on
the path to victory.
Harm no
one and damage no property. For if you do, you will be questioned
about the people you harmed and the property you damaged. The
questioner has the power, so be the questioner. Ask 'What good does
it, to teach us Inequality?'
