LotyssBlossym Oct 30 @ 8:58 PM EDT

@MrWidmaier It didn't take away from the message. #ECET2

@lisa_hollenbach @Arsant10 @Chemteach201 @barrykid1 Yes. Let's do. What about D.C.? #ecet2

MrWidmaier Oct 30 @ 8:58 PM EDT

A9: Take away - keep speaking up regardless of whether I know ppl will listen. If we are consistent and thoughtful it will work. #ecet2

A8: True listeners are not aggressive. A passionate and united voice can be effective. Find your tribe to advocate a culture change. #ecet2

@barrykid1 @lisa_hollenbach @Arsant10 @Chemteach201 was thinking about a central place. #ecet2 We could do NOLA or Vegas.

Miss_Edelman Oct 30 @ 8:59 PM EDT

A9 collaborate w/ others to affect change, advocacy is like voting- you can't complain if you don't make your voice heard #ecet2
