I do perceive that the most change seems to happen at the local level, and that’s where things like direct action live as well. That’s why I’ve made an effort to meet and speak with local officials. It’s hard not to get a little bit discouraged though, when things that could really provide more equity seem to go ignored. For instance, the needs of groups like first-gen immigrants and people with disabilities seem to always be a second priority, pretty consistently.
