I Will Not Keyboard Smash
Sep. 30th, 2009 05:30 pmWriting up this month's school board meeting makes me angry. Or frustrated. Or both.
I just...feel like the parents who are opposed to the free lunch program are putting forward their arguments in a semi-douchey way. I understand their arguments (some of them, anyway), I just don't like the classism and racism I feel is lurking around the edges.
But maybe that's just me projecting. ::shrug::
It is a touchy subject.
I think I ended up making a disapproving face at the meeting (that is to say, my mouth got really small and off-center). I wonder if the chairwoman (or other board members) noticed...
Meanwhile, I have fic to post later. Exciting, I know. It is the bright spot in all of the writing today.
