this one is for the community organizers

This post is for all of the community organizers who have worked tirelessly to build a better, more just, more humane world -- Dorothy Day, MLK, Susan B Anthony, and for the many good folks I know so well -- Carmen, Melinda, Deb and others -- who do their work without recognition, day by day, with youth and their families. Your work matters. Your work is central to supporting a culture of life for all people. Whether its children in need quality education,  families in need of health care, children living in the asthma zones of our biggest cities, or families on the brink of homelessness because of job loss or house foreclosure, you are there working against economic, social, and environmental injustice.
