What exactly is activism?
That'll be my question to ponder over the next 24 hours. I don't have the library access and time to read what the Sociologists think it is and the 25+ thrashing-it-out articles which no doubt exist. So I'll settle for thinking about it for a day and mapping my own activism history. Rachael you can map yours too!!

Does raising money (by making things and selling them at a garage sale and doing a sponsored coast-to-coast walk) to sponsor book publication and a mini-library for kids who have nothing in Laos count? That's what my kids are working on right now. They will also be promoting the cause by placing a banner on their blog and are talking to their friends - plans are to write to the local rag and possibly even schools/homeschool groups.
Hmmmmm, yes, this is just one example. anecdotal.
definition: activism is pro-actively doing something to promote a cause you believe in
will that do? ;-)
I think your children are activists Rachael. Likely to be very successful ones.
