im so sick of  people feeling they have to part of an organisation to be active or to feel they are making a worthwhile contribution. There is more involved in social change than paying $25 per month to the tax-deductable charity organisation of your choice. Large NGOs play a huge part in lobbying, but so do grassroots affinity groups, so do student groups, and community groups. Make the decisions about where you focus your directions, yourself.  Think globally Act locally.

hi all,
im not really abbie hoffman, im really a psychology student who has dropped in to investigate the phenomenon of online communities of the political variety.....


If anyone feels they want to tell me/post about their experiences with this website, what you get out of it? if it really does help with networking amongst like-minded people? your feelings about the 'tools' for action that have been provided to you.
