    Global warming is a hoax, the science is not behind these ideas. This is just another attempt to gain control over our freedoms. Stop brainwashing your children and research the truth.

    Hi Cameron….Thank you for your comment….We’re always open to respectful disagreement :)

    Kemi, I loved this episode. This is exactly the model that we use in my local, Chicago suburb letter-writing group called Social Justice for Social Moms! I have some good friends and colleagues with Mothers Acting Up, so I’m thrilled to see you spreading the word about advocacy on your site. I embedded your video in our site today. We’re trying to create a website where moms can talk about the big issues online and find out how to be involved. I invite you and everyone to check it out and join the conversation!
