Beyond Doomscrolling and into Action

On the surface, this is about the attack on women’s rights. However, to quote from the essay: «It’s all connected. We need to build a whole ecosystem of change-making.» The author shows ways to translate anger, fear and powerlessness into action. I particularly liked one idea that addresses the obstacle that each individual feels overwhelmed by the challenges ahead: It’s thinking of change as fractals — big change is made up of smaller versions of the same change.
