Each listened to different music and danced to their own beats, surrounded by others doing the same thing. <br /><br />I was way to shy to participate but I think Steve could have gotten me dancing.<br /><br />- Erin, Smithsonian National Postal MuseumAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37032121.post-49359816976421982722009-07-27T12:40:19.905-07:002009-07-27T12:40:19.905-07:00I love this blog, Nina.

It inspires me.<br /><br />While it's not a direct response to your questions, this does remind a bit of a group I'm a member of on Facebook. It's called Girls Are Not For Sale, and its aim is to fight sexual exploitation and trafficking of girls. Each week, they've been giving an "action" to group members over Facebook. The first week was "talk," and they asked members simply to tell one person about the organization and the cause. This week it's "investigate," and we're asked to look online for services available in our own communities and report back. These actions seem to do a great job of making members feel like they're a part of the organization and making a difference, and they're a good reminder that even small things can help. They also keep the Facebook feed lively! I think museums could probably adapt some of those ideas, too.Jennifer K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06111211264763934641noreply@blogger.com
