I am an activist
Today is day 8 of a hunger strike by workers against UNICCO and the Univ. of Miami. I have not been fanatic about supporting them physically, but I have supported them in my heart. Until today.
Today, at 1:30 on the patio near the pool, was a rally in support of the worker's right to form a union. I was there. I clapped at the speakers, I chanted with the workers and I made my presence known along with several other law school staff members and faculty members.
I guess that officially makes me an activist for social change.
I guess I finally learned that silent support is no support.
