This hurt my ♥️…& fueled the🔥in my soul!

“Adults of #america you need to wake up.
Allowing your political #biases to create a future where kids are treated w/hostility while pursuing higher ed is dangerous, no matter what political party you belong to.”

“It’s about the country we are building — 1 where young folks are punished for thinking, dreaming & believing differently than the gen before them.
We are not your #culture #war – we are your #kids.
We are the #future.

A quotation from Whitehead

In the conditions of modern life the rule is absolute, the race which does not value trained intelligence is doomed. Not all your heroism, not all your social charm, not all your wit, not all your victories on land or at sea, can move back the finger of fate. To-day we maintain ourselves. To-morrow science will have moved forward yet one more step, and there will be no appeal from the judgment which will then be pronounced on the uneducated.
