Talk the Talk, Walk the Walk

In my class today, my professor posed a question to all of us. Do you agree with Obama's decision to increase the amount of troops in Afghanistan? Once most of the class answered YES, my professor posed a follow-up question. Would you be willing to be drafted to fight in Afghanistan? Our mouths were silent. We had no answer.

The point my professor was trying to make is that many people take a certain stance on something, but never act upon it. People oppose racism, but what do they do to stop it? I am blogging today to call on those people who do feel passionately about an issue to make a difference. Act not only through their words, but their actions. I will admit I am adament about issues such as immigration and racism, but I really do not do much to create change.

Its about not only talking the talk, but walking the walk as well. I hope this challenge allows you to think outside the box, and really focus on what needs to be done to better society.
