Orange Day

According to Say No- Unite, the 25th of every month is Orange Day. This is to signify the rights that girls should have around the world. This month, we wear orange to support an equal education for every girl. Education is something most take for granted. All the time in the halls I hear kids complaining about not wanting to be in school or asking their parents to call them out of a class. What most adolescents in this nation do not realize, is that we have a privilege that more than 2/3 of the world around us does not have. The first step to solving any problem is to start small. So the next time you hear someone take their education for granted, remind them that they are privileged. Speak for those girls that can not, wear orange for support.
