Activism 101
|
| Activism 101 is part
of a family of websites, the objective of which is to promote positive social
change. By way of introduction, the
prerequisites for accomplishing such change include that the steps taken
to bring it about must be (1) consistent with human nature, not based on an
unrealistically positive appraisal; (2) voluntary; (3) grounded in education;
and (4) ethical. The importance of education derives in part from the fact
that enduring and widespread change, global change, will require a
mass opting-out of the present social system. Only education, about a better
alternative, will motivate a critical mass of the population to break free
of our current oppressive structure. Activism
101 gives an education about the tools of dissent, which is the essential
expression of popular power by which we both throw off authoritarian rule
and preserve the vitality of our democracy once we are free. |
