How Long Will Americans Stay Apathetic To The Reality - video powered by Metacafe
I'd like to meet me again and every other person that called themselves hippies, remember us, we were proud to be called the counter culture, you know the ones who 'let thier freak flags fly..This is what I'm going to title "a Call To Arms"And I'm going to start with a question! Or I should say my sons’ question.Where have all the Hippies gone?My son recently asked this question. He asked me this because he thought, we being “counter cultureâ€, the ones who had the guts to stand up against everything that was wrong with society at the time. Why aren't we helping to guide them.My first response was “apparently we were and are a jokeâ€.Was it really as our parents said? We were young, foolish, and immature?Or is it possible we knew and had a justified passion for regaining our freedoms!I don’t know about others that went through the 60’s, but I have a hard time telling my children about times when I stood side by side, I saw Billy clubs and still felt undaunted. I knew that if I didn’t stand here, future generations would have nothing to stand for.Was I wrong? Were we wrong?What happened to us? We fought so hard and now we set back and not just allow our children to become part of this, and we actually encourage it. We want our kids to be part of the… God I hate to say this but, we want our kids to be part of “The Establishmentâ€.As I remember we defined the word ‘establishment’ as being some one that was totally controlled by money & comfort. In essence , robots. More importantly people who believed our government, (not the US citizens) but the Government can do no wrong.Why, when we talk about all that we fought for do we, in the same sentence convince our own children to go into corporate America carrying a debt from our educational system that can be for $15,000.00 up to and sometimes well over $45,000. What are we dong to our own kids???We set here talking about what we went through just like the guy that caught that record fish, was it all a lie?I’m sorry, I know that what I fought for then was real and it’s even more real today.That was our revolution, and now we need to teach our children, we’ve made them soft and what they have to lose is more then we could imagine.We can, (as we have done before) change the path of history.It’s time to get out of the recliner and away from that cable TV. It’s time to feel passionate again. Last time it was so we could be individuals and people from different ethnic backgrounds could be accepted.The stakes are higher now!It’s time to teach our children that money, housing and any other comforts don’t have any merit if our constitional freedoms are taken away.******************************************************* ********
