1 day agoi was most radicalized by learning about Vietnam first and then the black panthers through that. was a ho chi mihn stan in 11th grade, got very into the 60’s and 70s in general. learned about the soviet union through a boy i thought was cute.
we learned about it in class and debated eachother, we read the kids times magazine, we thought obama was gonna cut the school week down to four days a week and give us all free yummy lunches. also i wanted a president that looked like me (i thought hillary was cool for being a woman but i heard she was gonna send us to war and i thought that was scary) . i made a full presentation for my family as to why they should vote for Obama. its one of my few memories i have of second grade tbh. oh and i thought obama was anti war and i was very anti war becuase duh
