Description

This is for when you make the placard, join the march, tweet the hashtag, join a union, begin the chant, claim the occupation, spread the word, stand up to the power, feel the revolution, seek the truth, seize the day, make the change and take control. This is for when those in power don't listen, those above don't look down, those around you remain silent and those who want to can make a change. This for the young, the old and everyone in-between.

This is The Art of Disruption and how we can all take back control and make a difference like our lives depend on it.
