So you’re an activist. You spend your time fighting for the right cause. You speak up! You stand out! You fight for [insert your cause here]! Not everyone necessarily agrees with you. And you’re fine with that, it’s part of being an activist. But some people aren’t content to just disagree. You may have stared down an email in your inbox saying that your video or article got taken down, but you don’t know why. And you don’t know what to do.
Sometimes being an activist is just frustrating. You try to track down the facts but maybe the state or federal government won’t turn over those documents.
And sometimes you worry too. What if by secretly recording that politician, I did something illegal? Did I maybe go too far with that last public statement? Should I really have used that video clip in my video?
