Activism Fatigue: The Mind is a Powerful Resource of Change
Elizabeth Montoya, Morning Sign Out (October 2020)
“It is never easy to create change. As we are currently witnessing with the civil rights, PRIDE, and BLM movements to see a positive change in our world, one must take action to create a movement. This is not an easy task, and there are bound to be obstacles that need to be overcome. Thus, there may come a point when even the most hardworking individuals feel overwhelmed in their efforts.”
