Many people respect us as activists for using our voices in the press to speak up for issues they believe in but would never have the courage to place their own reputation on the line to do so publicly.

To those of you, I say, here I am, world.

Hiring a gay transgender humanitarian and media activist who is a publicist to ghostwrite and/or subcontract for your brand is going to do a great number of positive things for your brand that, until you actually take action in doing so, I will now inform you of:

• Assisting in the subtle and authentic re-positioning of your brand as being sensitive to humanitarian issues.
• Advising on, creating, and implementing corporate social responsibility programs and standard operating procedures (S.O.P.s).
• Identifying your strongest human-interest story angles to support brand humanization throughout all brand messaging and when identifying and pitching the media.
• Creating customized, culturally competent, and sensitive media narratives.
• Developing journalist targets with a higher likelihood of increased media coverage for your brand.
• Preparing interview talking points and providing media sensitivity training for optimum public relations.
• Creating a strong press kit, inclusive of compelling brand collateral.
• Developing story pitches that make audiences associate your brand with relevant social impact causes.
• Providing media strategy frameworks that can increase positive, ongoing brand sentiment, along with countless other benefits.

We don’t go into activism for the money; we do it to create positive change in the world.

My ability to create positive change in the world is directly tied to making a decent living.

If you believe in an activist and can’t tie your brand directly to their activism, you can still support us by hiring us as advisors, ghostwriters, and subcontractors. Please don’t act as if our activism can continue without actionable financial support. Many people have been impressed by my work and voice in the press, yet have remained quietly observing my work and not contributing to its growth.

It’s time to reciprocate.

Let’s get to work.

To your success.

Not every act that changes someone’s life comes with a story.

Sometimes, it is quiet.

A rolled-up sleeve.

A few moments given.

Something taken from one person and provided to another.

You may never be aware of who received it.

You may never hear their story.

You may never know precisely what that moment meant to them.

And perhaps that is exactly the point.

We don’t always get to see the impact of what we provide to others.

Sometimes, we simply choose to give — trusting that, somewhere, when it counts, it will mean something of value.

A quiet act. An invisible connection. A chance at more time.

Donate blood.
