be an activist

I read Amnesty International, I have even wrote letters to causes in Amnesty International. I have ran races where the money that comes from the races is given to charity. But still, I believe I have not made a significant contribution to my community or to a cause.

When do some consider themselves an activist??, just by supporting an idea or when you actually do some tangible actions for a beneficial cause?

I dont know if my work as a teacher counts as bieng an activist. I write a monthly colum for new teachers and teach at thier trainings. I plan to give presentations at conventions at some point. I am not sure what other cause I feel so passionatly about to want to get involved in outside of children and thier saftey. Maybe there is an organization I can volunteer with. I don’t know. I certainly know I dont give shit for these political organizations. I want to give this area consideration and thought.

Actively involved in the community in which I live and raise my children including their education, activities, and other community activism

I am an activist in that I sign petitions, write letters, and make phone calls to the necessary parties, but I feel like that’s not enough. I feel like I’m barely doing anything. It makes me feel horrible. I want to be out there making a difference. However, the only things I can think of that are on the “front line” are attending rallies and leafleting. What else can I do to be more involved and “active”? Do I need specific qualifications in order to do them?

I think I’d like to get more involved in my political party (Green) as well as get more active in Greenpeace and Amnesty International.

i am an activist. i’ve been one for a long time, but i still feel like i haven’t done enough. i guess that is a side-effect of this activism, because i always want to do more and make a bigger difference

Someone has to do it

I just want to make a difference.

this country needs change.

I did !!!
Joined ‘Animanaturalis’ and worked with them last week in a fur-free campaign in Barcelona.

Now I’m also waiting for new Greenpeace campaigns, since I also joined them.

Really really worth doing!
