After watching the Pussy Riot events unfold in Russia today, I cannot help but think of what needs to be done in the world to stop these types of complete corruption. As the Internet connects more and more people we are seeing social injustices thrown into the spotlight. The sympathy and understanding is there and growing, but are we not just as guilty as the corrupt for remaining idle?
To me, it seems that we posses the tools and capacity for real global change, but how do we unite ourselves on a global scale? Solidarity and a desire to bring change for all of our fellow humans is what we are lacking. As the world edges ever closer to political uprising on a global scale, it will be the ability of we the lay persons to stand together that will truly bring change.
Whether or not we are aware of it, the wheels of change are turning.
