(1,372 posts)I grew up in the 60s when we marched against the war and protested.
Back around 1997 I was working with a group of people 10 years younger than I
and I wrote a letter to the chief of security about something I thought needed to be
corrected.
When I told my workmates they got all excited and siad I'd netter stop rocking the boat or I was going to get into trouble and they would let me go.
I had noticed when I first started working for this very large corporation that the workers didn't start to speak up until they had worked there for 15 years or more.
This defeatest attitude just reduces the number of people we have that can lend their energy to writing and voting and marching and occupying and whatever it takes to get these things corrected.
Have heart people! We will make things turn around!
Stay focused and keep your spirits up.
Whoever said you can't fight cith hall was wrong.
It just takes some committed and angry people to make changes.
Look at all the corruption that has been exposed over the past 4 years.
Now that it's been exposed it can be dealt with.
