See link above for the thumbnail and this detailed proposal. Rather than being another movie, ActToProtect will instead aim to be Hollywood's Greatest gift to Americans and to the Planet and arguably what is now most needed America and for the world: to help ignite and support the campaigns that will comprise the urgent massive nonviolent national well targeted and managed civic uprising and social strike which history and political science teaches us is our best strategy now for any chance to stop and reverse the grotesque level of wealth inequality, stop and reduce the ridiculous cost of rent, stop the fascist take-over and bring democracy and the rule of law back to America, and as a result stop the current ecocide and still preserve a livable earth. How: By showing 1) the most moving scenes of the most moral courage-inspiring based-on-true life-stories-movies since the 70s, most Oscar-winning or nominated, set up by the lead star of each scene, all A+ actors & GenZ&X influencers, 2) bookended by vignettes with today's real life courageous counterparts sharing their own reflections on injustice, greed, moral courage,organizing, and today's context ; and all of this intercut with short punchy video pitches (including TikToks showing Gen Alphas, Zs, and X's , and millenials fighting back) from campaigns today, all of this designed to 1) raise $300M for at least 100-200 bold, creative, at times hilarious, democracy, affordability, planet-saving campaigns while 2) igniting a sufficient level of moral courage in hopefully tens of millions of Americans to take back our country and our government–to achieve a government of, for and by the people. "Hollywood's greatest gift to the nation and planet now in our hour of greatest need" ActToProtect will be a cinematic celebration and inspiration of the power of film and moral courage, the most important of all human virtues, because "without moral courage, you can't practice any other virtue consistently"(Maya Angelou) The goal is to pair emotional inspiration with tangible action, art fueling the courage to protect democracy, the dignity of ALL Americans--especially the 98%, and our planet.
