The share ratio is the story 

Thank you. You did not just sign this petition. You shared it!

The share-to-sign ratio on this page has been remarkable from the beginning: 340 verified signatures and 246 shares. That is a lot of carrying for the number of names on the page. That is not to be taken lightly. 

Thomas Sowell put it plainly: there are no solutions, only trade-offs. A strong share and a slower signature return is one of those trade-offs. People will pass this on before they will put their name on it. That is not failure. It is the conversation starting — which is the point. Voice and vision are how we get Sowell’s words in front of people who have never heard of him. That is the work now. 

My daughter beautifully penned a letter to President Trump that references this petition. 

That letter can be read here:

This letter goes in the mail today — handwritten by my 13 year-old daughter

If you can do one thing this week, share it again with someone who actually reads. — and if you are on social media, tag Change.org so they see what you already did. 

You can copy this:
I signed this: www.change.org/AwardSowell
340 verified signatures. 246 shares. The letter to President Trump points to this page.
@change — the share-to-sign ratio here is not ordinary. Worth a look.


Tag them where they actually are:
 X: @change
 Instagram and TikTok: @changedotorg 

I am also asking Change.org directly: look at this campaign. The share ratio, the letter to the President, and the seriousness of the people who signed it are not ordinary. A push that puts this petition in front of more of your users — including the homepage — could be pivotal. The work is already being carried by the people who signed it. The next step is whether the platform will carry it too. 

This was never about a ribbon. It is about putting Sowell’s wisdom into the national dialogue — the kind of conversation that can happen when people stop using politics as a wall. 

I am grateful you are in it. 

— James
