“I went to two (pro-choice) abortion marches. The first one I went to, it wasn’t super crowded. There was definitely people there but the second one was the big one at the Statehouse...Everybody (met) at the Statehouse and there was a huge turnout. We started marching towards Monument Circle (and) we ended up all filling Monument Circle and it was just a really cool moment. It felt very empowering because it showed how much support we had.”

“I try to be an advocate in whatever way I can because our world needs advocates. If we don’t speak up for the injustices our communities face, who will? I also started small and got more involved over time, so by joining a club or two, learning more and listening, you become empowered with the information, skills and confidence to speak up for others and it lights a fire to change our world that you can’t ignore. It is also so much fun helping causes and communities bigger than yourself.”

“I think that a lot of the times, very bad policies will be made to seem boring or unimportant to your everyday life but they become the policies that can be the most damaging. So, I think it’s important to be involved and know what’s being done and not be complacent in ignorance.”
