Because of that bird’s eye view and perceived distance from the rest of the community, Just Crusaders are uncompromising in their focus on the mission - on what fights we’re in now and what challenges lie direc…

Today we explore all of the ways in which a Lead Actor Activist shines. These leaders stand out for the unique talents and skills they bring to the table. They are engaging and magnetic.

Hopeful Romantics are right there - right out in front. The captain. This is who you've seen jump up on hay bales, kissing babies, running for office, creating petitions, starting organizations. The Democratic Activist Community makes lots of room for these kinds of Activists and treats everyone who shows up to help like they are just a Hopeful-Rom…
