Activism isn’t just a passion - it’s a skill. In my new book, I share the tools that have helped me make real change in the world.

You don’t have to be the most powerful person in the fight to make a difference.

Joe Bates’ work defending Native American land shows what persistence, community, and a refusal to back down can accomplish.

Role models matter.

When girls see women making decisions, using their voices, and leading their communities, they begin to see what is possible for themselves.

Mercy Kafotokoza’s work is a powerful example of that.

You don’t need a title or a huge platform to make a difference. You need a cause you care about—and the willingness to use your voice.

My book, "Find Your Fight", is a guide to turning what matters to you into action.

Amanda Jones’ decision to speak publicly about debates over books and libraries reflects a central idea in Find Your Fight: there’s a difference between caring about an issue and deciding to use your voice for it.

Making an impact isn’t always about money.

Jonathan Jones’ point about mentorship reflects a central idea in Find Your Fight: use what you have—your experience, your voice, your example—to help create change.

Finding your fight sometimes means refusing to hide.

Jonah Platt’s commitment to being loud, proud, and Jewish reflects a central idea in Find Your Fight: when something matters deeply to you, use your voice—even when silence would be easier.

[Jay Ruderman @JayRuderman]

Why is it easier to tell your boss you broke a bone than to say you’re struggling emotionally?

Kenneth Cole’s point gets at something central to Find Your Fight: change begins when people challenge the norms that keep important issues unspoken.

#FindYourFight #KennethCole #MentalHealth #Advocacy

[Jay Ruderman @JayRuderman]

Change starts with being able to imagine something better.

That’s a message at the heart of Find Your Fight: identify the future you want to help create, then figure out how your voice and actions can move us closer to it.

Some of the best decisions I've made started with trusting my instincts—not having all the answers.

When has your gut been right?

[Jay Ruderman @JayRuderman]

One victory doesn’t mean the fight is over. Progress can be challenged—and even reversed.

That’s why persistence is one of the central lessons in Find Your Fight: meaningful advocacy requires staying engaged for the long haul.

[Jay Ruderman @JayRuderman]

Finding your fight isn’t just about choosing a cause. It’s about doing something with it.

Gary Sinise’s work building adapted smart homes for wounded veterans shows what sustained, practical advocacy can accomplish.

That’s at the heart of my book, Find Your Fight.

[Jay Ruderman @JayRuderman]

Progress often looks impossible—until years of advocacy finally break through.

The first Deaf Oscar winner represented far more than one Hollywood milestone. It showed what persistence and representation can make possible.

That’s a central lesson in my book, Find Your Fight.

#FindYourFight #DeafRepresentation #RepresentationMatters #Advocacy

[Jay Ruderman @JayRuderman]

Platforms change. Media changes. The way we communicate changes.

People don’t.

Effective advocacy still comes down to connecting with people — and being willing to adapt how you reach them.

Most people want to help. They want to contribute to something bigger than themselves.

The harder question is figuring out how.

That’s what I explore in Find Your Fight: turning the desire to make a difference into action.

What shapes the causes we care about?

In this clip, I reflect on my father’s final words and their lasting impact—a reminder that what moves us personally can also help us find our fight.

Caring deeply about an issue is a starting point. Creating change means learning how to channel that passion into action.

I had to learn how to organize, too.

There’s no blueprint for activism.

The people who create change don’t necessarily have everything figured out—they’re persistent. They keep showing up and keep going.

It’s easy to feel discouraged by what’s happening in the world. I believe we can choose to do something about it.
