This election season has reminded me of the actor I once was - someone consumed by theater, film, and performance alone. Sure, I had outside interests like travel, reading, and the occasional sporting event, but it wasn't until a few years after graduating I realized actors, writers, musicians, and all artists have a responsibility.
A true artist appreciates that expression is not only shared through craft, but through spirited debate, listening respectably to a point of view contrary to one's own, speaking up against injustice, being civically engaged, and doing so with conviction. Choosing not to be a bystander.
Remember that your Voice Matters. A LOT.
VOTE.
