I was at a retreat over the weekend with musicians and managers of musicians re how to best involve musicians in making social change, and the organizer of the event asked me to do a brief overview of what public policy advocacy actually means, so I drew some lines on four different pieces of posterboard to show people. Given that these simplistic, dumb-looking charts seemed to put advocacy into perspective for folks, and given the intensity of emotion we all feel about what is going on in the health care fight, I thought it would be worth reproducing them for a blog post.
Before I show them to you, I wanted to say a couple of things re this health care fight, and all other policy fights for that matter.
