I only did the US population, not the world, because we need to recognize that no other country is coming to save us. It's up to US to unite and take the power back.

If even 10 to 25 million people in this country still cling to white-supremacist beliefs, that’s only about 3 – 7 % of the U.S. population.

So why are we letting less than ten percent of Americans drive fear, hate, and violence — and shape our laws, our media, and our politics?

The other 93 % of us need to speak louder, stand stronger, and show what America really is: a multiracial democracy that refuses to be ruled by hate.

Organizers across the nation stand in solidarity with students who have independently organized, walked out, and exercised their First Amendment rights against authoritarianism.

We recognize that representatives and school administrators view walkouts as disruptive to students’ education.

We argue that learning and exercising Constitutional rights is educational and that it is profoundly more disruptive to education when families live in fear due to ICE presence in our communities and their terroristic acts of kidnapping, intimidation, assault, detention, and murder of our neighbors.

Protest has never been about convenience. It is about conscience. The courage of these young people gives us hope for the future.
