Teen Revolution

Introduction

Here is how the first page looked when I started this section:

Here is a part of email I got recently from a student in Finland, just after the shootings there.

I founded a group called, The revolution is ours. To most adults, this seems as a really stupid thing. But they don't understand! They don't! We are at war, and we always have been! Children are slaves! Sure you don't beat us. ( ANYMORE ) Now you do it Mentally! And we cant take it anymore. This isn't ever going to work. That's just the way it is. According to the major power in the world. In OUR RACE, this is never going to work. Imagine a world, where children are EQUAL to adults, and where We dont have to worry about race or age. We only worry about our survival as a one species. Children need more rights. And we are ready to fight for it. Without violence. We start small, and build up quickly. We have already been able to accomplish getting an abusive teacher fired, without any help from the adults. This proves my point.

If you would like to contact him, please write to me.

Here is something else he wrote

I have become so emotional because of this school. So angry and full of hate torward these people, that i was able to write this ´Plead` in around 2 -3 minutes.

Brothers and Sisters, hear
my cry.
For too long have i been
RAPED by these wannabe
MADE TO BE know it alls.
For too long have WE been
stabbed in the back
By the ones who are meant
to be SMARTER than US.
They prove themselves
wrong.
In truth,
They are idiotic RETARDS
abused by the power of
money.
Brothers and Sisters, hear
my PLEAD!
Enough have we had of
these MINDLESS beasts,
Savaging and killing our
bloodline.
Enough have we had of this
SEWAGE that walks atall,
Seeing less than the
lesser man.
Discrimination, abuse,
violence, money, power,
These are all THEIR
creations.
It is IMPOSSIBLE,
Absolutley IMPOSSIBLE, to
change what they are.
It is absolutley too late
for them.
But we, my comrades.
WE are the TOMORROW.
This is not a desperate
thought of a lonely child.
This is a SCREAM from the
fiery pits of HELL itself,
Where they have sent me
too many times.
We are the TOMORROW.
Brothers and Sisters, hear
my THOUGHTS!
OUR THOUGHTS!
The truth is not out
there.
WE ARE THE TRUTH!
This is not a convention
of desperation.
This is a REVOLUTION to
SHAKE THE EARTH!
To CHANGE!
Whatever your religion,
Your god will kill us all!
So let us not give him a
reason to!
My Dear Brothers and
Sisters!
We need change,
And we dont ask.
Not anymore we do not.
We will take.
For all that is right.
I will NOT let my CHILDREN
become what I am to
BECOME!
I will fight like how god
allows me.
With the power he gave me.
I wont ask anymore.
Dear loved Brothers and
Sisters,
Those who will stand
beside me.
Close your hands and make
a fist.
For today,
The revolution is ours.
For we are today.

So Dear Steve Hein if you are still reading.

We need your help. We realize that an education is a very important and necessary thing. But it should be done differently. Adults need to respect children as their equals. Although some dont, adults may even treat children as a white racist treats a black man. This is racism on another scale.

what do we do?
can you help us?
are you an adult of the future?

A famous man once said: In order to have peace, you must be prepared for war.

True, but what if there's peace during war? `

(By the way I wrote him back and told him I don't really think of myself as an "adult" just a person. He then wrote me again. The letter is below
