Check out this video on making cancer a national priority.
Pay close attention to minute 1:42 for Halle's two-cents, "I don’t think the full responsibility (of making cancer a national priority) should be on the government. I think it’s important that we have policies that are set forth to protect citizens.... But I also think it’s important for organizations and people to feel empowered to make change themselves."
In other words, if we wait around for the government to find the solution, nothing will ever happen. We need grassroots activists (like all the awesome Yoga Bears!) to bring forth change.
