We would like to facilitate an exploration into the idea of "cultural acupuncture," taking where people have passions and energy and making that community service, outreach, and activism. We want to begin our hour with a TedX talk by Andrew Slack that describes how people who were moved by a story and used that story to get people excited about the world's need for improvement. We want to facilitate a discussion among our participants that focuses on how they can get other people enthusiastic about and involved in fighting for causes they care about. We want to end with a writing activity in which these participants can write their own story that engages an audience in such a way that convinces them of the need to fight for that cause in a way that this audience will get excited about their cause.
