Elizabeth Magallanes

Using the guidelines on page 113, I will construct a vision board of my own ideas about how I will act for change and then share it with my group.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I will use the resource links provided and spend 45 minutes learning about the native populations that lived in my area prior to colonization, and what I can do to support those that still exist.

Racial inequity is both a sustainability and justice problem. I will support businesses owned by people of color in my community whenever I shop.

This week, I will contact 1 of my favorite companies or local businesses to advocate for socially responsible practices.

I will pick up litter on my street and ask others to join me in taking care of our neighborhood.

This week, I will spend 30 minutes learning more about gaslighting, tone policing, and/or microaggressions so that I can avoid them in my own communication.

I will start a systems journal, capturing my thoughts, concerns and learning about peace, justice, and sustainability issues.

I will learn what local organizations are working on peace, justice, and/or sustainability issues and how I can get involved.
