how will you try to affect change in the world regarding these issues? (post #20)

If there was one central theme of this course it would be that knowledge and awareness goes a long way with helping others. If you can get others to care, then your cause has accomplished a crucial first step. The least that I can do is let others around me know about the "secret" things that we let happen in our world. Such as child slavery, forced sex trade, abusive labour, and corruptions within governments. Once attention has been drawn to a certain issue then progression can be made moving forwards. However, one day I hope to work harder at change than simply talking about it. Maybe I will advocate for a cause I'm really passionate about over the internet, because then my information on the issue can be easily accesible and shared. On a daily basis however, right now, just simply being kind and respectful can go a long way. We are all after all neighbors on this earth. And we need to look after one another as well as the planet that we live on.
