    You can act from inside the system: running for local office, working with the homeless, volunteering with neighborhood groups, raising money, working for a lobbyist, tutoring kids and adults.

    You can act out: protests, civil disobedience, graffiti. You can try to change the conversation with blogs and social media and public relations.

    You can use your talents to fight the good fight—whatever that may be—as a filmmaker, a writer, a photographer, a songwriter.

    You can even simply sit back and support the people who do all these things.

    Outside of recent and ongoing actions tied to the Occupy Wall Street movement, what do you do to express your discontent with the economy? How are you voicing or acting on those concerns?
