ACP develops strategies and techniques that, when combined with Art and New Media, serve as principle tools for social action. Through its work, ACP provides methods, strategic frameworks, as the catalyst that supports the ability of youth and adults to use the local resources in their communities to create social change.
These activities are designed to engage large, diverse and diverse groups of people working non-hierarchically and collaboratively in social actions that take place in their communities and on the Internet. Our focus is on communities that tend to be the most vulnerable and experience adverse social, political and economic conditions.
It would be amazing if an election, regime change or a coalition of leaders could eliminate the man-made causes of hunger, war, disease, homelessness, a deteriorating environment, and oppression. They simply can’t.
They can’t without us, the people.
The Active Citizen Project (ACP) is you, me and all of us causing change.

Who I'd like to meet: Who’s it For?
ACP is for all of us.
If you want to do and not just talk about what needs to be done. If you want to get your facts from the people who are most affected and not just the news. If you want things to be different and not just look different. ACP is a place for you to come and come often.
ACP doesn’t represent who we are. It is who we are. It doesn’t report what we do. It is what we do. It doesn’t tell us what to believe. It is what we believe.
ACP is us, the people, political and active on our own terms.

The conservatives are part of this culture of corruption that the Republicans have brought to Washington. Think of the Scooter Libby problem, the Alberto Gonzales problem, the Doug Feith problem. Think of all of the people in the Bush Administration that have had to leave office under a cloud -- Randy Cunningham, the Republican congressman. Well, now it looks like John McCain is part of the corruption problem in Washington. He has done things that are legally questionable -- the Keating Five business back in the '90s -- but he doesn't seem to really have an ethical compass. He doesn't seem to have an instinct about what is the right thing to do and what isn't the right thing to do. He talks a good game, but he's just like all those Republicans in Washington have been for all these years, and I don't think the American people want a president like that.
