I saw this video: YouTube - Will Phillips and the GetEQUAL.org pledge
And I was so impressed at some of the things this 11-year-old said. I especially liked what he said about that in order to get civil rights for all, we need to get into a little trouble and take a little risk to get it. By a little trouble, I think he mostly means we need to speak up for what we believe in, which I know has been hard for me to do sometimes because I don't want to offend anyone or taint a relationship.
I also liked when he called out Obama and told him that his voice is huge and he has power to influence many. I love my president to death, he is amazing, but it's true that this issue is still so hush-hush in his presidency.
Anyways, what are your thoughts about this video?
