12 Steps On How To Become A Medical Marijuana Activist
If you have a yearning in your heart to make life
better on this planet, to right some wrong or support
some effort large or small, then you are an activist.
Instead of feeling frustrated in front of the television
set, here’s some ways that I’ve learned to get things
done.
1. Speak out about an issue. Don’t remain silent, but don’t scare
people away. Try to express your concern in a positive manner.
The world doesn’t want you to act, and the rich want you to shop,
so God bless the social justice activist! But if you are concerned
about the environment, pollution, war, poverty, or the high price
of living (or anything else), then speak your mind! President Teddy
Roosevelt said do what you can, where you are, with what
you have.
2. Find like-minded friends. These won’t be your real friends (in
fact, your real friends will think you’re crazy). Pass a petition and
sign people up. Folks who give their name and address may give
time, energy and money
3. Find the officials in charge. Everything’s got somebody in charge,
often a chain of command, and you have to find out to whom to address
your concerns. Don’t demonize them, for often they are as concerned as you.
It’s not a conspiracy that the world is the way it is. It’s just the way it is and it can be changed.
4. A good organizer keeps track of supporters’ names, addresses,
telephone numbers, e-mail addresses, and whatever else comes down the pike.
Build that list. Share the work, by sharing your concern. Delegation of work means
you trust people to help. That trust will help you get things done.
5. Find people who are working on the same issue. And there’s always people working on the same issue who’ve probably won a few battles, and can tell you a few stories. It’s nice not having to reinvent the wheel.
6. Use resources like libraries and the Internet to educate yourself and find national organizations
that will support you.
7. Bring in speakers — outside agitators and experts who will enlighten and educate the community
as well as the officials. This is a good organizing tool, but don’t bust the bank. Find experts who won’t
demand high fees, but who can share information.
8. Use the media. Make a list of every outlet and try to get personal
with the reporters. They are all overworked and appreciate it when
someone writes an articulate story for them to use. Don’t be afraid of
radio talk shows and television cameras. Find spokespeople.
9. Money is no object, but you have to ask for it. Really, this is the
richest country in the world, and people will give to a cause if they
trust you. So learn how to beg. Find folks who will keep track of the
cash. If you need more than $8,000 a year, find a lawyer and set up a
tax-exempt organization, or find an existing group that will take on
your cause.
10. Get a copy of Robert’s Rules of Order http://www.robertsrules.com/ and learn its spirit.
Your meetings will devolve into squabbles or be driven off track unless you learn how to
conduct them. Share responsibilities.
11. Celebrate your victories. Use any excuse to have a party, sing some songs, listen to poetry
and reflect; all the while, charge admission or pass the hat. Try not to treat people on the other side as the enemy.
12. Never say no to somebody else’s issue. In fact, encourage people to get up from their television sets
and make the world a better place. There’s lots of issues. No one thing will bring about redemption, but a
whole lot of little steps get us closer to paradise.
Good luck!
