You cannot allow for beliefs and words to be suppressed.
If you do, by definition you are enslaved. You no longer can challenge power by speaking truth to it in today’s day and age. That’s not good enough—one must awaken and empower the people through action. If you have an opinion, speak it.
Speak. Your. Truths.
Be proud of them, embrace them, own them.
Left vs. Right at Haverford is nonsense, we are better than that. We must create a culture where all experiences and viewpoints are welcomed and everyone feels comfortable expressing their opinions. Divided people can be ruled, but unified and strong populations do not stand for being taken advantage of.
The willingness to critique shows unity.
Our political opinions do not need to be the same to be unified. Also, critiquing aspects or departments in our community does not mean we are not unified. In fact, the willingness to critique shows unity.
Do not let your voice go unheard, speak your truths, and be proud of who you are. Godspeed.
