At BBC Proms, Israeli conductor Ilan Volkov calls for action against Israel.

Damn, from an Israeli that lives there – you can hear the anger and pain in his voice. This is someone that does not want a genocide on his behalf.

This is what courage looks like.

As he said – Everyone do your part!

I keep saying this over and over.

This is why ACTIVISM matters.

From the Labour Movement, Environmentalist Movement, Women’s Rights/LGBTQ+ Rights, General Civil Rights Movement, and so on. You have to FIGHT for a better and brighter world.

Predatory forces that profit from problems are many times incredibly powerful.

Politicians are many times extremely corrupt and cowardly.

YOU HAVE TO FORCE CHANGE! It won’t come otherwise. There is no waiting on the sidelines for a better world. That means the good people and organizations of this world get pummeled by those powerful and predatory bad actors.

Activists are the unsung heroes of our society. They face repression, stigmatization, and even criminalization for keeping the spotlight and pressure on areas.

Through sheer will and sacrifice and alongside awareness/education campaigns they enlighten the populace and change societies/the world.

The world would be much much darker without our past activists.

GET INVOLVED PEOPLE! GET INVOLVED!

will always appreciate Israeli people who stand up & say this isn’t ok. I know Netanyahu is pretty disliked there but at this point I’m giving everyone from Israel the side eye unless they are willing to do this.
