What were you doing when 12 people were brutally murdered at the headquarter of Charlie Hebdo? I was teaching school children about the virtue of tolerance.
Forty-five minutes later I was home and learned that education can seemingly only do so much. Such an atrocious and cowardly deed to what end? It doesn't matter really, does it? There is no argument for a massacre. There are only thoughts for the family and friends of those that were gunned down. May their legacy live on.
We aren't all as brave to take on the bullies in our society that try to silence the voices that offend them. Now is the time to change that. Now is the time we all became Charlie without fear.
