These feminist high schoolers are using ‘The Scarlet Letter’ to protest dress codes

Students at Charleston County School of the Arts in North Charleston, South Carolina, have had enough.

Not just to protest the dress code — but also how it’s being enforced.

you know how everyone complains about reading The Scarlet Letter in high school? like “this was written a million years ago it doesnt event matter anymore” yeah, well, this is why literature is actually really important. using larger social and cultural threads to enhance your understanding of your own experiences is pretty cool.
