I wouldn’t try snake handling with the BLM vipers. They’re just as likely to bite you. A group of students could organize a protest by boycotting classes because some white administrator hadn’t checked his privilege to the satisfaction of some activist.

Teachers unions should focus on eduction issues, not the pet political causes of their Dear Leader.
