You can accomplish by kindness what you cannot by force. ~Publilius Syrus
While we can’t force a fair election or guarantee that all votes will be counted, VoteKindly.org is partnering with The UpTake to increase the odds of both by videotaping kindness-in-action at the polls.
As Lynne Twist–author and activist who this year helped Ecuador enact a constitutional amendment that grants Nature protective rights—says, “What we appreciate appreciates!”
The UpTake and VoteKindly.org challenge You: Help us test Twist’s proven appreciation principle by committing and videotaping acts of kindness that serve a safe and fair election. Details on how to upload your videos onto The Uptake’s platform where it will be fed to news outlets can be found on The UpTake’s blog. The Uptake has the ability to stream your voting reports live from your location—how cool is that! It only takes a few minutes to set-up your cell phone to make this historic contribution to a fair election. Most video-equipped cell phones have this capacity, and there’s a link to a page on The Uptake’s website that will tell you if yours is one of them. Let’s harness technology for the greater good.
Human kindness has never weakened the stamina or softened the fiber of a free people. A nation does not have to be cruel to be tough.
~Franklin D. Roosevelt
