This was us y’all, and this needs to be students across the US. I organized this event, along with fellow students in under 24 hours. If the high schoolers ca stand up for justice why can’t you? Adults - you have failed us. We are the next generation, and we will bring change!

Saying "I don't know" doesn't reveal ignorance or insecurity. It reflects confident humility. Insecurity drives us to pretend we have the answers. Confident humility gives us the courage to ask questions. You can't learn if you can't admit you have something to learn.

From what I can see, Capt. Crozier is a patriot who was just trying to do what’s best for his crew. If this report is accurate, I don’t know why he would be punished for that -- especially with so many lives at stake.
