Easy to say no College protestors

There's a 60's song from the musical hair that's dated but it's message is relevant here. A feminine voice full of woe belts out, "It's easy to say no." "Who care about evil and social injustice?" when I'm right here, suffering among us. Calls for genocide, ethnic slurs, instill fears, one's message blurs.. Be careful what message your protests send, and don't forget your peers, your college friends.

It is always important to protest peacefully, but anger seems to overcome so many... no one should lose the right to protest, but should be done in a fair way..

Dear Nancy, Your words beautifully reflect your reflection on the power and responsibility of protest. Your insight into the complexities of social justice and the importance of unity within communities is timely and thought-provoking. - Blessings, my friend, Daniel
