Definition: The profession of an advocate
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look today,
At a word that’s important in so many ways!
You read the dictionary, a helpful little plea,
Saying “advocacy” is “the profession of an advocate,” you see?
But let's dig a little deeper, don't you agree?
That definition’s quite precise, but it doesn't set us free!
Advocacy means standing up for what is right,
Speaking out with passion and shining your light.
It’s about championing causes, big or small,
Fighting for fairness, answering a call.
Think of someone fighting for animal care,
Or pushing for changes beyond compare!
A lawyer arguing, a voice clear and strong,
That's advocacy working where it belongs.
It’s about using your influence, your time, and your might,
To make the world better, shining ever so bright.
So, advocacy isn’t just
being
an advocate true,
It’s
doing
what you can, for me and for you!
Does that make a little more sense to you? Any questions before we move on?
