Every moment is an organizing opportunity, every person a potential activist, every minute a chance to change the world.

I am happy to see that, increasingly, people care about farm workers. There is tremendous interest in where and how our food is grown.

If we don't have workers organized into labor unions, we're in great peril of losing our democracy.

Giving kids clothes and food is one thing, but it's much more important to teach them that other people besides themselves are important and that the best thing they can do with their lives is to use them in the service of other people.

The racist rhetoric from politicians is inspiring people to organize, as more people see what happens by not getting active.

I had been a Girl Scout from the time I was 8 to the time I was 18 years old. I had belonged to my church organization and youth groups. But, you never really found a way that you could make a change.

My kids have lived experiences that could have never been duplicated otherwise. That's one thing about people who get involved in activism, you live so many experiences that otherwise they wouldn't be there. This is why peoples' lives are so enriched.
