Do what you can," "Do the little, (or the big), things that make a difference you can see. The tangible stuff. Or take to the streets to do something for the future. Do anything. Just don't give up. "Don't let them grind you down. Rise up all ye sisters and brothers who know better. Stand firm in the downturn." https://benjaminzephaniah.com/ive-cri...
