I can't believe I got this. How did she know?πŸ˜€ Love her.

 

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress

Here's another question I got Instagram this week:

Screenshot of AOC Instagram question: What's the best way to get involved/ fight back if you're an introvert?

So this is a really good question.

One piece of advice that I would give to someone who is highly introverted, and maybe community organizing is not something that you can do right now: I would say use your talents.

If you are a really good writer, If you are an illustrator, if you have any other sort of talent to offer — whether it’s making an infographic, or an informational post, or writing something that you think is compelling and moving to contribute to the current moment — you don’t have to wait to be part of a big organization or anything like that.

You can just make things on your own. Try them out and see what’s helpful.
