What is Activism?
Listen now
Description
In today's episode we discuss a framework for thinking about activism. It's not the set of actions which raise awareness or lead to change, but the capture of the natural phenomenon of change itself, in the interest of one's community. Our world is constantly evolving, and it is up to us to participate and ensure that as we move forward, we are moving towards a more just world. For more activism literacy content and education please visit our website, activisthq.org. Activist HQ is a multi-platform media initiative by the Tangency Foundation, a nonprofit activism literacy organization. We are entirely volunteer-run, and depend on the support of our community members. One of the best ways to support us is by sharing our content on social media! All ofthe resources we create are provided free to the public in the interest of engaging and educating as many people as we can.
