Activism

some nice soundbites from a relativly broad looking range of activists.



we hear phases like "what is right and what is just." i find this interesting, as this seems to me to bring up the question of whether we have a right to act on our own interpretations of "right" and "just."

I think there is reverance in the van jone's concerns for activist becoming "the anti-war people, the anit-racist people." As well as Michael Fox's points about people getting caught up in activism and the need to act from some sort of "centre."
This selfawareness and self critique of activism, as talked about in the previous post interest me, as it begins to put activism in context with the world.
