A lot of people are frozen in their fear right now and do not know what to do, even though they are horrified by what's going on and may want to act. When you witness other people take to the streets and resist publicly, it can help thaw that freeze and provide a model for what is possible.

When you feel yourself becoming complacent or surrendering to hopelessness or apathy, remember that everything that exists today exists because someone(s) dreamt it up and decided to put in the work to make it a reality. We can create new ways of doing things, new ways of being, new worlds.
