WHAT KIDS ARE REALLY LEARNING IN SCHOOL

On November 2nd, 2005, kids across the nation joined protests organized by The World Can’t Wait, which called for walk-outs to support the demand for an end to the Bush Regime.
One of those who answered the call was a 10th grader named Geovany Serrano. A student at L.A.'s Belmont High, Geovany passed out fliers, and tried to organize his fellow students to support the walkout. When administrators learned of the plan, they launched an attack on the youth, grabbing him, blasting him with pepper spray, and arresting him! He was hauled into the infamous Rampart Division police station, taken to Juvenile Hall and fingerprinted.
