ARC resources for Tea Party attendees — VOICES for REASON

In an article titled “What Can One Do?” (in Philosophy: Who Needs It), Ayn Rand said the following about what one person could do if he was concerned about the state of the world and wanted to improve it:

I will say the answer is “SPEAK” (provided you know what you are saying). A few suggestions: do not wait for a national audience. Speak on any scale open to you, large or small—to your friends, your associates, your professional organizations, or any legitimate public forum. You can never tell when your words will reach the right mind at the right time. You will see no immediate results—but it is of such activities that public opinion is made.

We’ve gathered together materials for those interested in speaking out at Tea Parties on July 4. Check out the Ayn Rand Center’s resources for speakers, attendees and advocates. Our web page dedicated to the Tea Parties has fliers that can be downloaded, sample speeches, and other articles. We’ve also created a number of videos that can be shared.

If you’re attending a Tea Party, and plan to use some of these resources, we’d love to hear from you. Feel free to leave feedback at VFR to let us know about your event.
