What if an activist looks like you? -- Lay your foundation -- Practice radical realism -- Find your community -- Build resilience -- What's your legacy? -- Make your plan. "In this age of social justice, those who don't necessarily want to lead a movement or join a protest march are left wondering, 'How can I make an impact?' In Micro Activism, former political consultant turned activism coach Omkari Williams shares her expertise in empowering introverts and highly sensitive people to help each of us, no matter our temperament, find our most satisfying and effective activist role. Using Williams's Activist Archetype tool, readers discover their unique strengths and use this to develop a personal strategy. To ensure sustainable involvement, Williams encourages starting small, working collaboratively, and beginning locally. Advice on self-care practices, burn-out prevention, and profiles of activists engaged in a range of activities and causes (from voter registration to craftivism, literacy programs, community gardens, and more), provide readers with the inspiration and practical know-how needed to engage in small, doable actions that make a lasting impact." -Provided by publisher. 20231219.
