High school students from all over Serbia gathered in Novi Sad for the "Online is not the solution" protest. Blessed are the parents who taught you true values, and you lived up to their names. Blessed are the teachers who taught you to think - said professor Vesna Blizanac to the high school students

Large protest high school students "Online is not the solution" is held in Novi Sad.

The protest is being held at the intersection near the Futoska market, which is blocked.

Around 18:30 p.m., the music program began with a concert by the popular group "Iskaz", writes 021.rs.

Before that, the teachers of secondary and elementary schools in Novi Sad prepared a performance: they held papers with the qualities that every future student should possess - wisdom, solidarity, flexibility, selflessness, generosity, wisdom, lucidity, perseverance, courage, safety for oneself and others, tolerance, empathy, focus.

One of the teachers, who spoke at the "Online is not the solution" protest - Tanja - said that she cried for her students out of honor and pride.

"You came to tell us that something is wrong with the school and we know it. The school today is like a notebook with a lot in it, but nothing. The cover has faded. The school needs to change, and you are the ones who need to change it together with us," she said.

"Blessed are the parents who cry, not because you are wet and tired, but because they are proud of you. They created heroes who walk through Serbia, in Nike slippers and woolen socks - children, what can you relate to! Blessed are the parents who taught you true values, and you justified their names. Blessed are the teachers who taught you to think. It wasn't all just brainstorming, there is a lot of understanding and application here. And most of all, you understood the freedom that you are conquering, slowly but surely," said professor of Serbian literature and language Vesna Blizanac.

High school students honored the victims of the November 1 train station tragedy with a sixteen-minute silence, followed by noise.

The protest will last from 11.52:00.08 a.m. to XNUMX:XNUMX a.m.

High school students from several cities will speak at the meeting, and professors will also address the students.

Judicial impasse: Release Marija Vasić immediately

Keeping sociology professor Marija Vasić in prison on charges of terrorism is an anti-civilization crime. Or grotesque, whatever you want. Why don't judges, prosecutors, policemen, security guards rebel against it

Comment

Vučić has nothing more to offer, no one and no way

In a speech that made no sense from the point of view of logic and integrity, Vučić offered his voters everything they wanted to hear. But, all in contradictions. The spirit of rebellion can no longer return to the bottle because the bottle is broken

Overview of the week

We must not watch and remain silent.

The Republic of Serbia is in danger. If we remain silent on the rigged process against political prisoners in Novi Sad and the Kraljeva case where the victims were declared violent, soon we will all go on hunger and thirst strikes for a shred of justice
