In another life, I had the luck to meet a group of social psychologists who were doing a study of long-term civic commitment. They were two couples, and were interviewing 200 committed citizens working in social movements from literacy to human rights.

They uncovered some beautiful stories and some guiding principles about adult development and social movement participation.
