How to be an Advocate

- Utilize your rights: contact your Congressional members, state, and local representatives and the president. Let them know how you feel about specific issues. Don’t forget to vote!

- Educate yourself and others: write a letter to the editor to generate public awareness of the issue. Write an article for your religious organization’s newsletter OR for the Mustard Seed.

- Vote with your pocketbook: support boycotts and buycotts.

- Mobilize: Participate in nonviolent protests, vigils, and commemoration ceremonies.
