“This is not a utopia, this is a joyful dancing rebellion” (Tijoux’s “Somos sur”). This lyric perfectly sums up the Chilean movement of he 2000’s tone. They constantly rebel and question authority, but they do it through acts of joy.

Biography allows one person to represent a cause. Examples include Hector Peterson and Daniel Cohn-Bendit. Other than people, the images depicted on the posters from France in ‘68 work in a similar way. They use one image (like a fist) to represent a movement #hnrs230

The high schoolers from Majority Stoneman Douglas remind me of the Chilean students and the students in Joshua simply because of their youth. The youth are a rare kind of counterpublic because they are guaranteed to become the public when they get older. #hnrs230

Thinking about how scientist's words can influence the public view - addressing the issue of climate change still involves convincing people of their impact on climate disaster and environmental degradation https://t.co/v3RTpB8t2V #swatclimate

Scientists were only wrong about how long we have to reverse what we have done to ourselves. Significant change has to happen soon. It is on all of us to do it. #climatechange

In her “We Call BS” speech, Emma Gonzalez turned the impersonal into personal by making the connection between government officials taking donations from the NRA or not writing anti-gun legislation to the thousands of attacks on students just like herself. #hnrs230

“The students see the movement as inseparably linked with historical antecedents that appeal to claims to general human rights and struggle against the system” (Stromquist & Sanyal 163). Being the second generation of political unrest comes with a drive to not let the cause die.

"Coastal property owners are failing to take even basic steps to protect their homes against sea-level rise and hurricanes, even as climate change increases the risk that coastal homes will be damaged by rising tides and storm surges." https://t.co/2KVuuNQraE via @EENewsUpdates

“Urges can be manipulated so that we can do nothing until they are satisfied”(Jasper 291). Sensuality isn’t usually a goal of a protest. We’ve seen reputation/impact as goals of protest, but Gonzalo is the first example of trying to get a girlfriend through political action.
