[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s disappointing that the Hardy and B&GC parents (and kids) and civic space advocates haven’t organized anything bar a petition and a useless ANC vote. Those of us on here seem to care much more about it than they do. Oh well.[/quote]

Have you called your Councilperson and Mayor Bowser?[/quote]

Nice deflection. The point is that the form of mass direct action that is needed to turn this into a political issue that the mayor can’t ignore - and, yes, the mayor can certainly ignore phone calls - is not being organized.[/quote]

Then why don’t you plan something?  If you have a good plan for a successful sit-in, I’ll show up.

I don’t know the people at BGC or Hardy; I don’t know if they have not planned a sit-in because it is outside of their skill set or they don’t think it is wise strategically for some readers.  Beats me.

But I don’t understand why you — who is apparently doing nothing— are criticizing other people for not suddenly being activism professionals.[/quote]

I would be happy to help them, but it’s fairly hard for you or I to organize actions involving the students if we do not have a connection to the school.[/quote]
