Animal and environmental activist Matt Johnson spends most of his time on vegan outreach, but he recharges his batteries with spurts of direct action. On the front lines, Matt sees the magnitude of the horrendous situations facing animals and he intervenes to directly save animals’ lives. Then he feels invigorated and inspired to continue his vegan advocacy work.

These situations foster lasting activist friendships due to the seriousness and long hours of the mission. A network of friends and "family" provide opportunities to support and be supported by others, a key ingredient to sustaining our activism.

Matt explains how direct action can galvanize and balance your activism on our next Sustainable Activism Webinar on Thursday, July 6, 5:00 p.m. – 6 p.m. PT (8:00 p.m. – 9 p.m. ET). You can join this live webinar via phone or online, or listen to the replay later.
