Why is it important to protest?
Many major injustices in history have changed because of people standing up for their rights and protesting like for example:
Women’s Suffrage Parade
The demonstration brought more attention to the cause of women’s suffrage. Seven years later, after many more protests and demonstrations, the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, granting women the right to vote, would be ratified March 3, 1913
Berlin Wall Protests
The concrete division that had separated East and West Berlin for 28 years came down just two months after public protests occurred throughout Germany.
November 9, 1989
