There's more than one way to be an activist.
said: I'm disabled and have severe claustrophobia. Is there any other way I can help besides showing up to rallies and marches?
First, thank you for your activism and for giving voice to the fact that people with disabilities are too often not included when protests are planned. Nonviolent direct action, including attending a march or a rally, can be a powerful way to speak out on an issue you care about, but it’s just one of many ways to have an impact. The Women’s March on Washington has been touted as the largest single-day demonstration in recorded U.S. history, and the onlinewas an important component of it.
Here are some tips for ways to “show up” when you aren’t able to show up in person, as well as suggestions for all of us for building more inclusive movements for social justice and human rights.If you’re interested in an issue but can’t go to the rally, spend some time learning about the topic and the groups organizing the event. Spend some time on their websites and sign up for email alerts — this way you’ll be in the loop when there’s another opportunity that feels like a good fit for you.
Social change work requires that we commit for the long haul. In the end, what matters is that we work toward the world we want to see each and every day, and that we participate in ways that work for us. In solidarity!
