Act Out! [38] - Saddled dinosaurs, students rise up & green washed politics

Act Out! [38] - Saddled dinosaurs, students rise up & green washed politics
Wed, 11/18/2015 - by Eleanor Goldfield
This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

First, since when did stupidity become so popular? I guess since dinosaurs wore saddles – yes, saddles. Next up, education is a right and it's time to stop treating students like customers at a luxury store. #BlackOnCampus sheds light on the issue of racism sweeping our schools, and let these be calls to action for all students – time to rise up, we've been silent too long. Next, can't see the dying forest through the green-washing. And finally, nous sommes unis. But first, we knocked something over – now we need to clean it up.
