Americans, what now?  T-rump has been in office only ten days, and I'm already weary of my (certainly justifiable) outrage.  I need to act.  To do something.  Scrutinizing my skill set, I've settled on a few projects, one being a blog offering ideas for action based on interest area.  Don't hold me to the order of the following:
  1. What now? Deciding how to DO SOMETHING in a meaningful way
  2. The Other Side:  Believe what they say
  3. Slactivism: Doing good vs. just feeling good
  4. Alternative facts 1:  Identifying false news and downright lies
  5. Alternative facts 2:  Is it possible to prevent fake news?
  6. Immigration 1:  The Muslim ban that could work
  7. Immigration 2:  The wall that Pink Floyd didn't build
  8. Immigration 3:  International adoptions
  9. LGBTQ:  How many more letters can we add?
  10. Homelessness 1:  Don't give money to that guy on the corner!
  11. Homelessness 2:  This IS our culture's mental health policy
  12. Homelessness 3:  Why we don't see the children
  13. Justice:  It's easier if you're White
  14. Christianity:  Take it back!
  15. Hunger:  Canned goods aren't enough
  16. Education 1:  Keeping religion out of public schools is HARD
  17. Education 2:  We pay for what we value
  18. Education 3:  Civil rights in classrooms?  Seriously?
  19. Addiction:  Apparently, it's popular
  20. Advocacy:  Safety is an issue.  Seriously.
  21. Either/Or:  Animals or people?  Environment or climate?  Eggs or bacon?
  22. Housing:  It might be the most important social issue
  23. Trade 1:  The world is too small now
  24. Trade 2:  "Fair Trade" isn't about cotton candy
  25. Sports Safety:  Yes, my son plays high school football
  26. Our Planet:  How doomed is it?
  27. Us vs. Them:  Why labels matter now
  28. Healthcare 1:  Don't get me started on "awareness"
  29. Healthcare 2:  Pharmaceutical companies aren't evil
  30. Healthcare 3:  "Let them use the free clinic" -- Marie Antoinette
  31. Healthcare 4:  Colored ribbons will be the death of me
  32. Income inequality:  You don't notice if you're White and male
  33. Law & Consequences:  It's difficult to marry when all the men are locked up
  34. Abuse 1:  Have children always been raped?
  35. Abuse 2:  It's all about the power
  36. Elders:  You might become one
  37. The Arts:  Construction paper is important.  Seriously.
