This is so powerful. It needs to be heard in every school in America and repeated until change is made.

I teach. I encourage the tough discussions. I teach the curriculum where America isn't all that pretty. I face problems at work from other teachers who don't like being uncomfortable. It breaks my heart.

These young women make a person feel hopeful that perhaps a miracle of higher thought and consciousness can actualize. Their intelligence and passion to break through the stupidity of the status quo which is long overdue is both admirable and impressive.

The spoken word is indeed powerful! And yes, gratitude and compassion are also important--but women and others who feel unempowered most often need to begin with a feeling that they are allowed to unleash their anger. Once that need is met, then they can move on towards more positive healing and positive actions. And what better way to unleash anger than through the spoken word?! A poem is such an amazing medium - and these young women use it so well...

Their passion is inspirational...their anger fierce. What about the other side of the coin...gratitude for living in a country where they as young women are free to express themselves. A generation of anger will not heal a nation.

Wow. I was a classroom teacher for decades and how true how true how true...silence does not mean agreement...we have forgotten what is important to teach students....how to live and become a viable, active citizen with heads held high. Silence does not translate into consent...students of all ages can make a difference...let us teach children HOW to learn and put away some of those outdated syllabus that are held in high esteem simply because they are comfortable...not necessarily true.
