Please send feedback to howyoucansavetheworld@gmail.com! I’d love to hear from you

This week I talk about ways to stay sane while continuing to be a committed and effective social activist. I was lucky enough to get us an interview with the creator and editor of one of the best Weekly Social Activism To Do sites

The down and dirty recap!

  • An interview with Jenn Hofmann of The Weekly Action Checklist for Democrats, Independents, and Republicans of Conscience.

  • George Lakoff, FINALLY we discuss that term thrown about on every news program, ‘the narrative’. It actually means something important…especially if you have Trump Voter friends/foes/relatives in your life!

  • Oh the joys of the Bullet Journal!

  • Time Management and your new extra bonus career as a social activist! If you do this…you will keep on keeping on.

    2. re:act
    3. Flippable
    4. Spread the Vote
    5. 5 Calls a Day

  • Go to a meeting a protest, or a townhall for your own sanity’s sake.
    1. Swing Left–Adam Green

    1. “Never Give Up, Never Surrender”

    2. “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.” (and yes, I totally got the quote wrong when I was speaking to myself in the episode!! Bonus points if you noticed that!
