I get emails all the time from people who want to do some sort of activism, and it may sound good on the surface, but we really should be smart about what we are doing. After awhile the public, the officials, the agencies they become turned off and numb to our activism, they ignore even further after being hit so many times. The rabbit rushes in, and tries everything in a frantic, hurried pace. The tortoise only does activism that will make a difference, once in awhile, with a powerful punch. And also, the tortoise doesn't fall for easy schemes or things that are way too good to be true. Smart activism is waiting for the right time to open doors, using resources that are available to make a difference and really be thoughtful and genuine in the attempt. If you cannot do activism on December 10th, I invite you to basically light a candle in a room of darkness on that night. I will be doing a lot on this day and I would need everyone to pray for me and for all of us during this critical time. Thank you in advance and may God be with all of us in our struggles and suffering.
