Because out of the three people who did the reading for Folk Law, I was the only one willing to argue as the "lawyer" for a government that wants to expropriate and mine the ancestral lands of a hypothetical indigenous tribe in a mock trial.
When I started talking about national security, critical materials, and supply-chain dominance, those kids were stunned silent.
Behold, the power of hegemony.
