Isiah D. Kortright

I am currently reading //Our Time Is Now//. I had originally planned on reading //A Handmaids Tale// but I havent checked it out of the library yet. //Our Time Is Now// is a story told by high school student Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. who is a part of the national underground school newspaper movement. It provides different views of the movement (and social and political issues) by including columns from different high school underground papers across the nation. So far its really interesting and motivating.

Take The Power Back by Rage Against The Machine is the song I can connect to this book. The song describes the ignorance the american people have about the government and thats its time to, yes... Take the power back. The underground newspapers were doing just that for students, parents, and teachers.

So called facts are fraud They want us to allege and pledge And bow down to their God Lost the culture, the culture lost Spun our minds and through time Ignorance has taken over Yo, we gotta take the power back...
