Last Saturday we started marching... and we aren't stopping anytime soon.

Prior to last week I had definitely 'protested' before, I've marched in DC for Peace, I showed up to say Black Lives Matter and to occupy for the Fourth Precinct, bringing water and donuts to those able to dedicate more time. I've organized street theater in protest at BP's World HQ in Edmonton in response to the 2010 oil spill. On vacation in Scotland I even joined in to walk alongside Midwives who were being forcibly removed from the work force. I have been an activist for years, but this is different.

Last Saturday at the Women's March Minnesota the fire that had previously existed in my heart was multiplied tenfold. Since then...

Monday night, I attended a fundraiser / campaign kick off and donated a measly amount of money. Tuesday, I testified at a MN legislature Public Safety committee hearing. All it took was a phone call and for me to show up. I went to a Minnesota State Board of Trustees Meeting. I attended a MCPA conference on the topics of inclusion and how educational faculty can support student activists. I spoke out against naysayers online and did my best to educate those who sincerely wanted to grow understanding. I had every intention of attending a documentary viewing and panel but ended up going home to work on homework. Because as much as I want this post to motivate you to be active we all have to remember that , we can do anything but we can't do everything. Self Care is Health Care! If you don't end up doing everything on your calendar that means you truly were reaching and that is beautiful. 

I write this without the intention of tooting my own horn, but don't be mistaken, I am not above that because I work hard and passionately.. so toot toot. The intention of this post is to invite you along with me on this march, we all need to keep marching. There are so many ways to get involved. Google your passion, read local newspapers, go to any and all meetings, ask a friend what they are engaged with, find something you care about and fight for it.
