| 46. bobbolink, thank you so much for posting this. |

It really is what she would have wanted, for people to do act when witnessing injustice, not to turn their backs, but to ACT, to do whatever they can, whenever they can, in any way that they can, to change things for the better. That's what she taught us. And to her, poverty was the greatest injustice in this world.
Please, everyone, don't look away.

And now, the point is... will you keep on working for poverty? Or will it sink? |
