Assignment 13: Changes! - James Apo

There is a growing (or lack thereof) problem in America. No Shave November is an outrage and needs to be stopped. Although I am participating and even have a full beard, I am concerned for those who are less fortunate than me and cannot muster more than peach fuzz. I want to stand up for those peach-fuzzers, because they are people too, hairless people, but still. Cancer is an awful disease, but why should we promote it with this mockery that is No Shave November? How about the shaving cream companies and the razor companies and the small business people that are the barbershops of America? We must stand up like a freshly cut, multi-colored, diverse Mohawk. This is so discriminatory that it makes me sick. How many women do you know that can grow a great beard? Only a handful can, and this is just plain out sexist, but that's a conversation for a different day. What kind of country do we want to give our kids? Do we want to hand down a country that values the follicles on ones' face more than equality? That seems follically incorrect if you ask me.
