Make deep connections even when views/beliefs conflict to a degree LN will be transparent to earn credibility; eschew self-promotion and hype; build bridges LN will create a bottom-up, self-organizing system that is autonomous, passionate and self-sustaining. • BE DEDICATED TO CREATING MATERIALS AND MESSAGING AND SHARING • LEARN TO RELINQUISH CONTROL AND LET THE MOVEMENT DO WHAT IT WILL WITH A CRAFTED MESSAGE • LEARN TO STOP TALKING ABOUT “YOU” AND JOIN A CONVERSATION ABOUT THE MUTUAL GOALS of “US” • Support collaboration, alliances, joint missions • Meet, Don’t compete • Listen and learn. Don’t judge.

GROW ‘CAUSE’ MARKETINGMARKET LN for mutual benefit by creating alliances using New Media & social marketing well (it is a revolution to touch millions quickly) and with positive messaging for the change desired, and getting traditional media coverage by partnering with fellow organizations, corporations and celebrities communicating with people on a level that transcends small mindedness – it is outdated. Ln will be innovative. Ensuring the people that participate in the movement are incredibly passionate, and of diverse-age, ethnicities, incomes, education levels…

Education’s has an inherent social strain that we can use: Fuel restlessness with hope and action Enact Fairness and inclusiveness Be the driving force Think freedom of constraints Be the Justice You Desire LISTEN, don’t judge If YOU know about the problem and don’t take action YOU are the problem
