so, it's white ribbon day tomorrow

Nov 24, 2011 20:07

Just a little reminder of the society we live in and why not saying anything, not doing anything is criminal.

Just add the recent Vile Kyle spewing of filth and it makes you think.

Well, make some of us think.

My hope for White Ribbon Day is that you, dear friendlist, will think.

Pretty simple, right?

Do some reading, follow some links. Maybe even do some research.

It doesn't take much to be aware of the world you live in and try to do something to change it for the better. Even if you only make a small change in attitude or action, it's still a change and can lead to something greater.

Simply saying, "Hold on, that's not cool," is simple but says so much.

Choosing an alternative option hits companies where it hurts -- their bottom line.

But saying nothing? Doing nothing?

Perpetuates the cycle, gives tacit approval for it to continue and makes you complicit in wrongs that are done.

If you agree? Do something. Sign a petition, choose another brand, go out and be awesome.

If you find this confronting? Good. A wake up call is good for the soul. It's good to learn new things.

If you don't care? Feel free to defriend me.

If you really don't care or can't be arsed to click a couple of links? Please, tell me now. I'd love to know, because I'll do the defriending for you.
