Political Activism
This week, everyone in the Forest Foundation was give the unique opportunity to campaign for a cause or political candidate that they truly believed in. Regardless of our political differences, each of us was given the chance to air our views in a public forum for something that is close to our hearts. When we take a step back from the diverse array of agendas and causes that we all worked to advance, I believe that we can truly see what a great opportunity we were given; each of us was asked to take something they are deeply passionate about and given the support to see it realized. It is important to note what a rare and special opportunity this is. Seldom do we get the chance to take something deeply important to us and work for its actualization, whether it be due to a lack of resources, a lack of time, pressure from outside forces, or what have you. It was more than just a political exercise - we were given the chance to mold our passion into reality. Indeed, it was a truly unique and special opportunity.
