I gotta just say...

I find it remarkable that people are taking interest in what is going on in the world. Being a global citizen is something that a lot of us have already made our priority. Yet somehow, I find that this post is very necessary to write. Please, refrain from posting things on twitter, tumblr, and facebook that hint at the fact that you are the only one taking interest in what is going on in the world currently or ever. Example, the happenings in Libya. Some of us have known about Libya's struggle for a LONG time. Therefore, this new revolution that is occurring is not a  surprise to us, but instead something that we can be excited about because some of us knew all along that women were being raped and killed, citizens were suffering under a dictator that was cruel and unjust, and a revolution was most necessary. Yet instead of channeling our anger through hypocritical, mediocre means of awareness, we actually carry out our awareness through other things such as justice for women campaigns in the Middle East and everywhere, preaching about the rights of citizens all over, signing petitions, watching the news fervently to understand what we can do about it, etc. 

It is also important to make sure that you do not assume that people will jump on the media bandwagon such as you have done because there are a lot of happenings in the world that are not covered by the news on a day to day basis. These things go unnoticed, and honestly one excellent global citizen could ask you "What are you doing with your life?" based on the fact that you have no idea about them until Anderson Cooper gets jumped (HEEEYY AMANDA :D). 

Anyhow, I feel it is necessary not to bring down the political funk, but just to say everyone is in their own way connected to the global network. You cannot sit at your computer all day complaining about the lack of knowledge regarding the international politics of the world, but instead you should go out and do something about it. As a really smart Wesleyan always quotes (Taylor Bishop), "be the change you want to see."
