Hello! I live in South Carolina, and the general assembly has filed a bill that would make it a felony for teachers to know their students are trans and not tell parents.

I’m tired of seeing students in the south stand idly as our rights are stripped away. As such, I want to try organizing in some form. My goal is to eventually have enough students organized to orchestrate either a sit-in or a walk out. However, me being 16, I don’t have any experience organizing. Advice is greatly appreciated.

Basically feel free to.use this thread to talk about non anarchist matters with like minded people, you could yalk about your hobbies, an idea you have for a short story, anything that typically wouldnt be relevant to the rest of the subreddit. If you want more in depth discussion we do have a discord server.

Chances are that you keep hearing your family or friends repeat the tired old myth that we really, totally, do, in fact, live in a democracy, when just because our society has a handful of democratic elements (ex. the right to vote), doesn't mean that more and more power can't get concentrated in the hands of fewer and fewer people the higher up you go on the totem pole. In fact, as an American, our country was designed to limit democracy as much as possible since its conception. This might not sound all that surprising to you, but this myth keeps being legitimized by our governments, the media, corporate talking heads and such, that it's easy to hear it repeated in our minds.

In case you feel like you can't really put your finger on why our desires as the people don't really seem to matter that much, this essay by David Graeber might go some way to explaining it.

The key takeaway is that democratic rights are not benevolent gifts from above; they are hard-earned by mass grassroots movements which are organized according to the principles they want to see embedded in the fabric of society. So when you hear about how this or that candidate will save or destroy our "democracy", one has to question whether or not this would really happen in a real democracy. And don't be afraid to keep asking questions from there. When you feel like a system of authority has yet to prove its legitimacy, interrogate it at every turn to prove its lack thereof.

Solidarity to you all.
