Introducing SAST

Hello! 

Social Activism Starts Today is an initiative that depicts social injustices of our time through the expression of creativity. We want to provide a platform exclusively for those who want to initiate change in our world and simultaneously practice their passion - It feels good to do good, but it feels even better while doing it in a way that you love and is completely unique to you.  Lately, our world has been struggling, and so it’s important for everyone to pitch in and take a step towards an improved world. That’s why Social Activism Starts Today (SAST) was created.

Our initiative helps people display and call attention to social issues through their forms of creativity such as literary pieces (to be published in our free online magazine), to artworks, to photographs (these will be published in our gallery), to blog posts. We want you to depict social issues such as (but not limited to): racism, mental health, environmental issues, and healthcare to list a few examples. Do some research into social issues and maybe learn something new! 

 We are excited to see your submissions! Let's change the world together! 

From Our Founder: 

Hi! Thank you for taking a look at our site and giving SAST a chance! Lately, all my pieces have been exclusively about social injustices, with everything that has been going on. I did a deep dive into the issues that struck a chord with me, and that inspired me to create a platform where everyone could contribute what they've learnt through an expression of their choice. This site was an attempt to find a collection of people like me, who want to educate themselves and others. I wanted to build an initiative purely focused on raising awareness about social injustices, and do it in a way that encouraged everyone to join in however they could. Thank you for taking this step with me. Let's positively benefit the world through our creativity!
