As the turmoil in Iran continues...
I have been very fascinated by all the events in Iran. I have been saddened as well, especially after hearing stories like the one of Neda. I do want to encourage all readers to remember that these protests are being led by the youth of Iran. Many say that two-thirds of the population is under 30. I admire all of the protestors for what they are doing- standing up for what they believe.
It really begs the question…if that situation were to happen here in the U.S., would our youth rise up and demand political reform?
My words are up.

That's a great question. Change is not just need in election years. Will the youth of America stand for such changes as those needed in Higher Education?
ReplyDeleteI'd like to think so.
