Ben Edwards As you know, when Star Trek was canceled after the second season, it was the activism of the fans that revived it for a third season. George Takei But as for activism, my parents did what they could, given the constraints, but were never involved in the causes I think of when I think of activists. Paul Farmer "Empathy" is the latest code word for liberal activism, for treating the Constitution as malleable clay to be kneaded and molded in whatever form justices want. It represents an expansive view of the judiciary in which courts create policy that couldn't pass the legislative branch or, if it did, would generate voter backlash. Karl Rove I guess because the shows were activist in their own way - the marriage of my public activism and my career activism, you know - people understand me very well. They also understand there's a very strong bipartisan part in all of this. Norman Lear It was Dr. King's tireless activism that fostered our modern way of relating to one another. Wynton Marsalis It wouldn't be fair to say that conservatives cherish property the way liberals cherish equality. But it would be fair to say that the takings clause is the conservatives' recipe for judicial activism just as they say liberals have misused the equal protection clause. Michael Kinsley Maybe subconsciously I've kept activism separate from acting because it's important to me in a more profound way. Blythe Danner My activism and sexual revolution in New York was a factor. Sally Kirkland My ministry's always been one of social activism. I think a responsible minister must be at some levels involved in the social order. Al Sharpton My pro-choice activism keeps me busy. Margot Kidder Of course, conservatives always claim to be against judicial activism. Michael Kinsley Our aims in political activism are not, and should not be, to create a perfect utopia. Paul Wellstone Our Parliamentary system has simply failed to meet the challenge of judicial activism. Stockwell Day Out of control judicial activism threatens traditional marriage in America. Ernest Istook So the danger of conservative judicial activism has been averted for another year. Stay tuned. Michael Kinsley Ten years ago, 15 years ago, I think the church would have been asleep at the switch. This level of activism and engagement with the needs of society by local churches I never thought I'd see it in my lifetime. Bill Hybels That attitude that fighting is probably not fair, but you have to defend yourself anyway and damage the enemy, has been profoundly consequential as far as my political activism goes. June Jordan The Body Shop Foundation is run by our staff and supports social activism and environmental activism. We don't tend to support big agencies. Anita Roddick There's enormous progressive activism and, more often than not, success at the grassroots level - everything from living wage campaigns to efforts to finance our elections are having terrific success.
