Homeschool Totally Rocks
No school today. It's the end of the trimester and the new classes haven't kicked in yet. With little to do, I started browsing Wikipedia. I don't really remember how I found myself on the article of the Stonewall Riots. MAN OH MAN. This was a simply amazing event in history. Why don't they teach this in school?? It displays crowd mentalities in an interesting manner and really shows just how far we have come as a society. It is partly thanks to a very violent display of free will that we are no longer arrested for speaking our minds and living openly. About two days of violence and social disarray gave way to the opening of many minds and the first gay pride march! It also gave us a lovely line of graffiti: "We are open."
