Embracing Civic Duties: The Importance of Community Engagement in America Today

Civic Duty Awareness

An Introduction

This website was born through necessity to host a single idea, however it is being created with the hope that it will continue to be a place for future ideas, some of them my own and others crowdsourced from groups of actively engaged citizens and individuals who value responsible freedom, democracy, and compassion.

There are many excellent organizations out there to join and get active with in pursuit of common goals, and I encourage you, reader to research and find the ones that align best with your goals.

However, as my first idea didn’t quite fit with any particular group I had joined yet, I took it upon myself to create a home for my idea - signs to celebrate honorable leaders who have either resigned or been removed from their posts without much reason.

As a veteran, I found the explanation from the Department of Defense, and the Cabinet, to be lacking for the removal of several of these leaders. While active duty military must abide by lawful orders and decisions from the chain of command, that does not mean that civilians must be silent and stand by quietly and passively.

The position at the top of the military is the Commander in Chief, the President of the United States, and that person answers to the people. All the people. Not just the people who voted that individual into office. And the very essence of the Constitution was to empower the people, to hold each branch of government accountable, and to provide checks and balances so that no one branch became too powerful.

I will do my best to highlight the world I know, to spread my idea, to caveat it with guidance to stay within the right and left limits of the law, and to hopefully expand to connect with organizations that see the value in this campaign.
