So, this is another one of those “Outloud” conversations I am starting on CauseACTION. I have touched on it in other Rich’s Rants, in particular, the Rant regarding The Cherokee Grandfather’s “Two Wolves”.
Let me be clear – I am without any doubt trying to send you (if you are a man) or others to share this post with the men of all ages in their lives.
Please go take the “Defender’s Pledge“. Look, I know you will fail but hopefully never as tragically of paying for rape with either money or your power, standing or other manipulation.
But do go there. No one else will know.
As Matthew McConaughey says in an earlier Rich’s Rants: “Make your own personal obligations the ones that we make on our own; your own personal protocol; your own personal Jiminy Cricket”.
Put differently – How do you eat an elephant? You do it one bite at a time, of course. This elephant is huge in our lives. So, go take the first bite. Then go from there. Saying it out loud will help. A lot.
Nuff’ said.
Onward…
