Star Wars PSA

La educación of our youth should be our prioridad numero uno!  But is it, with female literacy still an epidemic?  Especially with so many ignorant of the sacrifices of the dinosaurs for our own selfish aims?La respuesta is “no,” gente, and now, thanks to this video, we see a new problem: how unaware our children are of the underlying temas revolucionarios of the classic Star Wars movies.  You laugh, gente, but have you really watched the films that helped shape contemporary political movements?  El núcleo of Jorge Lucas’s masterpieces is about an oppressed group of minorities — aliens and humans and their amigos alike — who take a stand against the imperialistic regime of an old white hombre.  Yes, La Guerra de las Galaxias series is all about sticking it to the man — diverse groups of aliens who come together as una comunidad for the greater good!

So, por favor, gente, do your kids a favor by introducing them to important revolutionary ideals early on!

[Although, my one critique: Why, Jorge Lucas, does the Bad Side have to be called “The Dark Side?”  Huh?  You got a problem with Brown people, o que?]
