Vanishing Forever
June 9, 2008 by Intrepidteacher
It has been a while since I’ve posted here, not for a lack of material, but for lack of time and focus. Fear not, I feel a phase of heavy activity coming on, so I hope you are all finishing up with school, using your down time wisely, and are ready to officially start changing the world.
I wanted to write a deep, profound, meaningful intro for the next video, but I think Severin Suzuki’s words say it all. I have also embedded this clip on the Ning, so feel free to comment in either place. I encourage you to share the video widely with as many people as you can, and have whoever you send it to come and join our conversation about it here at Intrepid Classroom. I am curious what you think. Sixteen years have gone by, and not only have things not gotten any better, they have gotten worse.
The entire speech can be found here. Some questions to entertain:
What is our next immediate action?
What are the reasons why nothing has changed?
What can we do about that?
Is she just an idealistic child? Is it that simple?
Please write, discuss, share ideas… I challenge you, please, make your actions reflect your words.
