Do you often feel like what is the point of engaging politically or voting? Are you worried about the direction our nation is headed and what is next?

Today Sharon McMahon is here to teach us about how our government functions and encourages us that individuals make a difference. She began as a government, history, and law teacher and then took her passion for educating to Instagram. Her platform grew rapidly as she has a way of helping all of us understand the process and history of the United States. Her new book* The Small and the Mighty) *reminds us that each person has a part to play in our sphere of influence and shows us how the United States was founded on the backs of small but mighty people. 

Sharon encourages with this truth that “we must not grow weary in doing good”. Our ancestors who have suffered much continued to fight for justice and invest in the communities around them and we have so much to learn from their stories.
