President Obama can not change the fate of our country on his own. It is up to free-thinking artists and activists everywhere to seize the opportunities we have to work with each other and realize our dreams.
The power of a real leader is to inspire the people to act. We must act together!
Most of the time, we act like education is supposed to end at 12th grade, or when you get that college diploma. Why do we think adults should keep their heads down, stop paying attention to the world, and live for that biweekly paycheck?
Why do we leave it to the idealism of kids to energize us and to dream big? That is a mindset that we’ve let ourselves settle into; we need to break the mold and let our unique creativity, our natural thirst for knowledge, come out.
The key to social change is the understanding that we have to think bigger, do more, and learn from our victories and defeats. Education is a life time pursuit; it’s the pursuit of a life time, facing the challenges of our world and bringing each other across the finish line.
