The recent political climate has been rocky, and students have been finding their voices recently in student walkouts, protests and more. The Wolf staff has been asked to share what they’d protest for.
“Anything that infringes on other people’s right to live. I think that it’s important to have a voice for people who can’t, so I don’t usually go to protests that are for my own identity.” – Jasper Bangs, Co-Art Editor
“Women’s rights.” – Violet Wilbourn, Staff Writer
“Immigration. It’s more relevant than ever.” – Sage Mezentseva, Staff Writer
“I would easily be willing to protest for all human rights, and to protest against ICE again.” – Lauren Ehrhart, News Editor
“Anti-Racism.” – Andrew Hutchinson, Bilingual Editor
“I would be willing to protest for a variety of reasons, but mainly protests concerning the current government. I’ve been to several anti-fascist protests in the past, like the No Kings protest and the one held at Tualatin High School recently.” – Sara Vander Ploeg, Staff Writer
“Tax the rich.” – Braden Hudspeth, Entertainment Editor
“A cause I would be willing to protest for is human rights.” – Nethra Balakumar, Co-Feature Editor
“I feel strongly about several causes and I’d be willing to protest for all of them. As president of our school’s Climate Change Activism Club, I feel particularly responsible to advocate in the community for environmental consciousness. Protesting raises awareness of shortcomings in effective environmental policy.” – Helena Vargas, Co-Editor-in-Chief
