On Apathy
May 26th, 2009
It’s quite difficult to convince my friends to go stand up for what is right. I wonder – did Harvey Milk, Martin Luther King, Jr., Susan B. Anthony have the same problems galvanizing the masses of people who would eventually bring to light the need for change? Not that I’m trying to act on the same level at all, but I really think that the current generation is so much more apathetic and generally lazy about life. It saddens me that things like a shift at Starbucks, a free Yelp! party, a class that happens weekly, or something as mundane as a light sprinkle is enough to act as an excuse for not doing what is right.
