Galvanize

Is there anything that gets us excited? Is there anything that shocks us? Is there anything that motivates us? In the day and age of Facebook Live, we have seen all sorts of injustices take place live and in color. We have seen murders streamed live to a viewing audience of millions. In many ways, the media has desensitized us to things that would normally invoke emotions like empathy, anger, and fear. We are numb to the very things that make us human. We are numb to our victories and our failures. We must wake up. We must take action. We must galvanize.
