bikini kill 

The below quote is by the infamous radical feminist and rock goddess (bikini kill, Le Tigre) Kathleen Hanna. While it is directed towards a feminist audience, I think it's pretty easy to see how the message can be applied to many different areas. We do what we can in our own capacity. Keep up the good fight.

"Resistance is everywhere, it always has been and always will be. Just because someone is not resisting in the same way you are (being a vegan, an 'out' lesbian, a political organizer) does not mean they are not resisting. Being told you are a worthless piece of shit and not believing it is a form of resistance. One girl calling another girl to warn her about a guy who date-raped her is another. And while she may look like a big-haired, makeup girl who goes out with jocks, she is a soldier along with every other girl, and even though she may not be fighting in the same loud way that some of us can (and do) it is the fact that she is resisting that connects us, puts a piece together."- Kathlenn Hanna
