MANTRA #BeingOneofUS. #UCLetsBuild! The future is nothing without people. So to build a purposeful future we must first build relationships, but in order to relate we must first become acquainted with one another.
ABOUT BEING ONE OF US We live in a country based on freedoms, most controversially freedom of speech/expression. This country says that everyone has a voice. However, within the tangled web of social and institutional norms we become restricted. This series hopes to return the power of expression and voice to those of us who have been lost in social economies of scale. This marks the beginning of the series: "Being One of US", featuring "Ordinary" individuals with extraordinary accounts across the US. As is usual with Under Construction, there will be a narrative in which everyone can participate. If you have a story we should hear, contact MJWJ for Being One of US or Follow us on Twitter @UCLetsBuild with #BeingOneofUS and who you are in 140.
