Tamara replied, "If you don't have a seat at the table, then you're probably on the menu."  In the current atmosphere, no one has more at stake than you/your loved one.  NHLS grads simply have to run for office. It's your obligation. As NHLS grads, I know you feel that truth gnaw at you day after day. Whether it be school board, state rep, community organizer or the PTA, know wherever your voice is heard it has power. Wherever you have a position, you have a vote. And whether you like it or not, everything you work for in the name of inclusion and equality, will be eaten for lunch if you don't fight to the end to protect it.
