  Standing up for what is right
Submitted By:   bglobalchange
Committers:  3
Date Created:  2009-06-01 		Description:   No one should be silent. If you see something that is unjust, than speak up, your voice can make a difference. Millions of people everyday experience racism, inequality, limited freedom, exploitation, oppression.. etc. We can stop this but only if we try, so "stand up even if you're standing alone" because that can make a huge difference and you'll only know for sure if you try.

  Voting
Submitted By:   laurakenyon
Committers:  67
Date Created:  2007-11-01 		Description:   Voting means different things in different countries, and unfortunately there are countries where citizens do not have this right. This makes it even more important for those of us who do, to exercise that right! As youth we represent the politicians and decision-makers of tomorrow, but we are also important members of society today. If we all took each opportunity we were given to voice our political opinions imagine the noise we could make! Voting is one opportunity to be heard that everyone should take advantage of where possible.
