I want to say to people who say they don't like ADAPT tactics: Do you really want our people out? Or are you sitting home saying, "Oh, those nursing homes shouldn't do that!"

How many people are going to get free because you hold that opinion?

What are you doing about it?

People are turned off by the arrests, by our confrontational style. "I'm not going to do ADAPT-style confrontations" — we hear that a lot.

If you don't want to be on the front lines but you do want to help, there's plenty to do: raising dollars so we can get to our actions, working with people in your community to make these issues known, forming your own group, bringing some attention to the issues in your own home town.

We sure would welcome your help.

ADAPT puts the edge on it, sets the margin. This is as far as we go, this is all we will take.

We will not be moved.

This article is taken from a conversation with Bob Kafka of ADAPT in Austin.

The photographer is Toni Olin of ADAPT in Cumberland Furnace, Tennessee.
