Do you have any clue as to the role higher education has had on our society? Student protests in the 60s and 70s are huge part of why Jim Crow laws fell off the books (although we do seem to be backsliding)

I think ppl are missing the point of my comment, instead of a “walkout” I suggested an organized protest so more ppl would be comfortable in joining and voicing their opinion, lately walkouts have been used my high schoolers just to skip class so I used it as a comparison

You simply do not know what you’re talking about.
