I'M DELLA FREEDMAN, YOUR HOST OF "IT'S A MIX". WE'RE CALLING THIS EPISODE "ACTIVISM - PART ONE."  ACTIVISM IS DEFINED AS THE USE OF DIRECT ACTION TO ACHIEVE AN END, EITHER FOR OR AGAINST AN ISSUE. DO YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF TO BE AN ACTIVIST? HAVE YOU STOOD UP OR SPOKEN UP TO DEFEND SOMEONE OR A CAUSE? OR HAVE YOU REMAINED COMPLACENT AND LET OTHERS SPEAK FOR YOU? IN THIS EPISODE WE HEAR FROM THREE PEOPLE WHO DEFINE THE TERM AND HOW THEY REACT TO IT IN THEIR OWN WAY. JET ELLER, A KEY GRIP ON COMMERCIALS AND FILMS USES SOCIAL MEDIA. SUSAN DEMCHAK, AN OBSTETRICIAN AND GYNECOLOGIST WHO IS VOCAL ABOUT WOMEN'S HEALTH RIGHTS ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND ALSO GOES TO ORGANIZED MARCHES. JIM McGUIRE, PHOTOGRAPHER, WHO WORKS WITHIN HIS COMMUNITY TO MAKE POSITIVE CHANGES. THANKS FOR TUNING IN FOR THIS EPISODE OF "IT'S A MIX". 

There will be an episode ACTIVISM - PART TWO
