Oppression, Resistance & Revolution: Friday
"I'm sure most of you are keen on leaving this class early," Magneto announced as he walked into the danger shop precisely as the bell rang. "Rest assured your homecoming activities can wait. Fun and frivolity has it's place. So does knowledge."
"Before the fall break we watch a movie," he continued as he began his regular circuit around the room. "About a man and his desire for a free country for his people. You may ask: what made that man different from others? For that I can give you a simple answer: conviction. As I mentioned before, just because you may take the option of non-violence does not mean it's going to be easy."
He gave his students a sinister grin and snapped his fingers. The danger shop swift changed from blank walls to what appeared to be a modern day protest. The only switch to this that there were counter protesters on the other side.
"Today, we're going to test your conviction," Magneto said with a malevolent look of glee. "And just see how well you can do. If you wish to bow out... you may. However that may tell me more about you than any other class you have taken with me so far."
He pointed at the protest going on and gestured for the class to join in. "Begin."

Cue the very mature eye roll. "Because you're the icon of peaceful resistance. Riiiiiight. Hypocrite."
Because if she was already going to be in detention anyway...

"Fine," he said in a clipped tone. "I hope you had no plans for the dance this evening. You can spend it here in detention."
