Advocacy

"Few people are willing to brave the disapproval of their fellows, the censure of their colleagues, the wrath of society.

Moral courage is a rarer commodity than bravery in battle or great intelligence.

Yet it is the one essential, vital, quality for those who seek to change a world which yields most painfully to change."

Robert F. Kennedy

"Intransigence in all governments I expect. But lack of support from the Trans community in the fight for our rights, I can never forgive."

Kathy Anne Noble

"This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning."

Sir Winston Churchill, Speech in November 1942

    "Laws can embody standards; governments can enforce laws — but the final task is not a task for government.  

    It is a task for each and every one of us.    

    Every time we turn our heads the other way when we see the law flouted — when we tolerate what we know to be wrong — when we close our eyes and ears to the corrupt because we are too busy, or too frightened — when we fail to speak up and speak out — we strike a blow against freedom and decency and justice."

    Robert F. Kennedy - 1961-06-21
