\n Scores of high school students in Thailand took part Tuesday in anti-government protests sweeping the country \u2014 by giving a three-fingered \u201cHunger Games\u2019\u2019 salute during the national anthem at morning assembly.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we are witnessing is the beginning of a social<\/a> revolution,\u2019\u2019 Bangkok political scientist Prajak Kongkirati said of the discontent \u2014 which included the students mimicking the sign of solidarity among the masses against their oppressive regime in the dystopian book and movie series<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Students from more than a dozen Thai high schools participated in the show of support for their country\u2019s pro-democracy protesters, who have been holding rallies at university campuses nearly daily since last month.<\/p>\n

The protesters are demanding that Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha, who came to power in a coup in 2014, step down and free elections be held.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to show that I don\u2019t like dictatorship and want true democracy,\u201d said a 17-year-old high schooler who participated in a protest at her school Monday \u2014 and asked not to be named because she was afraid of repercussions from her teachers.<\/p>\n

In addition to national issues, public school students also complained that they have to deal with restrictive traditions, including being forced to wear uniform haircuts.<\/p>\n
