12. If you give
me a fish,
then you
have fed me
for a day
13. If you teach
me how to
fish . . .
. . . then you have fed
me until the river is
contaminated or the
shoreline is seized for
development.
14. But if you teach me
to ORGANIZE . . .
. . . then whatever the
challenges, I can join
together with my peers
and we will fashion our
own solution.
