The great thing about social movements is everybody gets to be a part of them.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As I review the great history of our nation, community organizers have been at the center of so many of our great social movements.
Young people have been at the forefront of every great social movement in our country's history.
Social movements are at once the symptoms and the instruments of progress. Ignore them and statesmanship is irrelevant; fail to use them and it is weak.
It's funny how social activists usually protest against the only things that have a credible chance of achieving the activists' goals.
Major social movements eventually fade into the landscape not because they have diminished but because they have become a permanent part of our perceptions and experience.
The most important movement in the world is the feminist movement. If we can really figure out what's going on between men and women, the other problems will take care of themselves. I'm sure of it.
I'm part of an important movement that needs to happen.
Every social justice movement that I know of has come out of people sitting in small groups, telling their life stories, and discovering that other people have shared similar experiences.
Any social movement throughout history has always been carried out by only 7% of population being passionately active in that.
I think there's a mystery about what a social movement is.
