"Today we march, tomorrow we vote," is how one of the organizers of yesterday's nationwide demonstrations decribed his vision for the movement to the Washington Post.
I walked down to the national mall yesterday here in Washington. It was amazing: everywhere you looked, young people. Teenagers, young workers... A real demonstration of youth power! I don't really believe that youth are apathetic in the first place but anyone who does should have been there to see the spirit alive in these young people. It was their day.
If you are a youth activist and want to get more involved, try the Center for Community Change's "youth campaign".

hey hans, you'd like it when illegals are allowed to vote? how about you try to go to germany, the uk, japan, or brazil and start screaming, "I'M AN ILLEGAL ALIEN BUT I WILL BE VOTING SOON BECAUSE THE CITIZENS OF THIS COUNTRY ARE TOO CHICKEN-SHIT TO STAND UP FOR THE IMMIGRATION LAWS AND BORDERS OF THIS COUNTRY!" you'd get a swift kick in ass. this isn't about youth activism, this is about ILLEGAL ALIENS demanding rights that should be afforded ONLY TO CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES who earned their citizenship legally and not by border jumping. if you can't see the difference than you're an freaking idiot.
Amen!!
