“Punk’s not dead.” I remember the time well, it was several years after punk either absconded or was hijacked by fashionatics and became an embarrassment trying as much to celebrate the fact that it ever existed as hopelessly deny the fact that it didn’t anymore. You see, punk had come and mostly gone by the time most people became aware of what it meant. The early years of heady rebellion were followed quickly by the revenge of the empire. For that reason–whatever that reason is exactly–I am still a little wary of the label punk being used, even though at the same time I have definite sympathies with the spirit. I am writing this because I have recently heard the name Edupunks a few times and came across a home base of sorts. It’s located here. There are some good videos, thought-provoking stuff you might want to hear. Well worth a coffee break. Is it punk? It certainly smells like some kind of spirit. Hurry and check it out before the label sticks and the whole movement begins to lose relevance; or certainly before someone starts making “Edupunk’s not dead” T-shirts.
