Hi my teachers are making me do this. I hate Chatsworth because they are going to try to take the tittle from us as champs. Chatsworth had been champions forever and now it is our turn to win this game. We will be victorious. King/Drew has never made it this far.
I think what people are skirting around in their discussion of whether or not to involve themselves is: When is it a MUST to intercede? When is enough, enough? Where is the balance between letting others sort it out amongst themselves (an adult concept) and being obligated to step in?
ReplyDeleteSo many people posted to the first blog prompt that they are disgusted by "horrible thing"s like genocide and they "can't believe it happened" but in the same month will write that it's (basically) okay not to get involved...unless you know someone personally.
Here's a poem for thought:
First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.
