Unfortunately, I don't think I can call myself an activist because I don't really do enough of anything.

I'm not an activist.

Activism is very seductive, and writing is painful and hard. It's very scary to have a death threat living over your head. Activism is very sustaining. But I don't view myself as a political person. I'm just someone who desperately wants to stay alive.

I didn't wake up and decide to become an activist. But you couldn't help notice the inequities, the injustices. It was all around you.

I'm always the one with the activist friends. I've been an activist very little.

I would be an activist but never a politician. As an activist, nobody owns you.

An activist is someone who makes an effort to see problems that are not being addressed and then makes an effort to make their voice heard. Sometimes there are so many things that it's almost impossible to make your voice heard in every area, but you can sure try.

I'm an artist, I'm not an activist.

I was not an activist.

I'm not an activist per se, but I have strong feelings about things. People can jump on celebrities for being ill-informed or naive, but I've got a right to say what I believe.
