I've been in the streets. Where are you?
I've been attending various demonstrations, protests, and actions for nearly 20 years now. Ever since my early 20s (I'm 38 now) I've made a point of attending at least one protest every month, in addition to other actions I take part in. Lately, that's been closer to weekly than monthly. I cook for my local Food Not Bombs and sometimes help distribute (although my work schedule makes that difficult).
I vote, sure, but that's 2 days a year, at most. That's an incredibly small part of my political engagement.
nice. food solidarity is my jam.
