Be an Activist!

"A Leader has the vision and conviction that a dream can be achieved. He inspires the power and energy to get it done." - Ralph Nadar
There are many instances in life where a person can feel voiceless, a cause is going unnoticed, or an event is taking place that needs to be stopped. In these situations you can make a difference by standing up for what you believe in. When you are passionate about something you should speak your mind and find ways to help others in need. If you come forward and offer someone help or when you speak out against some wrongdoing you are being an activist.

What are you passionate about? Are there any causes, movements, or issues that you are interested in and would like to learn more about? Current events and causes that interest you can inspire many new ideas for your designs. For your next assignment you are going to create an Activist Poster. Check out the handout to learn more.
