What is grassroots activism and why is it important?
Grassroots is using the resources that one person has, no matter how big or small, and using them for a certain cause. The personal ways we live our lives can be considered grassroots activism. If you decide to buy a particular product over another because you don’t believe in the company’s labor policies or ingredients, or if you forgo the use of racist or sexist language are all small actions that indicate you are involved in grassroots activism. The small grassroots changes can make profound differences.
