Never doubt that a small group of committed people can change the world. Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has. – Margaret Mead
We used to use this quote on all our Neighborhood Salon materials at Utne Reader where I was the Salonkeeper for many years. It’s an inspiring quote, especially when the cause you’re working on goes head-to-head with a big institution. In the case of Real Joe, we’re not up against any institution, but we are swimming against the cultural tides. So the quote applies. And I believe we can change the world… and have fun along the way, no matter what happens.
