Apathy isn’t harmless. It gives permission for injustice to carry on unchecked.

White background with the text: Apathy Is Not Neutral – It’s Part of the Problem We’re facing devastating cuts to disability benefits. This will push hundreds of thousands into poverty, stripping away support that keeps people afloat. If you’re not disabled, but you know someone who is – a friend, a colleague, a family member – this affects them. And if you stay silent, it affects you too. Apathy isn’t harmless. It gives permission for injustice to carry on unchecked. Please don’t look away.
