Description

Those who aren't a part of the solution are part of the problem. From fighting for human rights to protecting the environment, from combatting the corporate-run status quo to demanding legal, social, and economic justice for all, much needs to be done to save the US and the world from itself. So, DO SOMETHING, even if it's from your computer keyboard or your cozy armchair. Since 1996, THE ARMCHAIR ACTIVIST has worked to provide you with online and offline ways to help make a difference. This list, a companion to the Armchair Activist's SUMMIT PEACE - ALL FACTS AND OPINIONS site at http://gratefuldread.net/, sends activism alerts and news items addressing a variety of progressive causes. If you have PROGRESSIVE action alerts or ideas to share, please do. Join, and then, right from your chair if you must, MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

Membership is open to all persons interested in queer and progressive issues. Repeat: Our focus is liberal/progressive and we support peace, equality, community service, diversity, justice, left-wing activism, humanism, green life, altruism. Those posting right-wing or Tea Party material will be banned. Opposition research is welcome and discussion is encouraged, however there will be no debate of our basic organizational beliefs here, as we consider those matters settled.
