What We Can All Do

THIS PAGE IS STILL UNDERCONSTRUCTION | but please take a look at it


Here in Wisconsin we are well into our third month of Protesting with no end in sight. Other states are facing equally upsetting battles. The work is consuming, energizing and tiring. We need everyone's help. This movement is spreading. Many of the political changes are creating fear and outrage and many people are asking what they can do to help stop the opponents. This is a call to action and is part of the waking up for many of us who have been part of the great political "sleeping giant". While I accept this notion, I think there are other ways to better understand the current situation and to stop blaming members of the extremely hard working majority of Americans.

I will be developing this page and posting it on occasion as a response to posts where people seem to want to further develop their "citizen-activist-practice".

Please feel free to use/spread all of this information. It is being developed to help this protest movement and is for the benefit of all.

Ways everyone can help.

1. Share this information,using electronic media, email, facebook, twitter,

2. Talk to friends, family, co-workers about what you are learning and how you feel about what is happening. Let them know that you concerned, and what steps you are taking and how it feels to become more vocal.

3. Add comments to the newspaper article...comments will bring the article to the attention of the writer and paper and in some cases place the article in a more prominent position on the electronic page. Any kind of activity will alert the publication and the writers to an interest in this topic and will generate more coverage in the future.

4.Make phone calls. Call your elected officials when you see that they are doing something that you support and something that you are opposed to. Enter the numbers in your phone and have the numbers easily available. A quick call will let them know that you are paying attention.. and that is critically important step. These people are our elected officials and need real feedback to best do their jobs.
