Being in-the-know about what's going on around me is important to me. There are many different reasons why this is important, one being safety. Some protests that arise are not peaceful; which means that it would not be in my best interest to go to that part of town where it's taking place. Other reasons include involvement and being educated about what is happening.

This certain guiding research question from Module 3 is a commonly thought about topic on the political side of things. According to Vox Journalism, the correct ways to protest are to make the message as salient as possible, unite overlapping protest concerns under one banner, pivot from talk to action, and to be proactive. I do agree that these seem to be the most effective because after awhile people get tired of dealing with the more least affective ways such as riots, un-peaceful protesting, and crime. These are more effective because everyone can get a word in and when people are listening to each others different perspectives, they are more likely to understand one another. Least effective protesting strategies include riots, vandalism, disturbing peaceful bystanders, and harassing people. These are known to not work as well because people don't want to listen when they are being harassed because that makes them lose respect for the overall cause of the protest.

This guiding research question from Module 3 intrigues me because this is something that is so prominent in our society today. An example of force is talking to your leaders. You can write letters to your local paper, serve on task forces, email elected representatives or provide input on new policies. You/the public can also speak up at public events like school board and county board meetings. In some cases, this feedback can make a real difference. Protests have been a big hit recently as a way for people to make their voices heard. All over the United States people have been protesting about the BLM movement, presidential election, and covid-19 policies.
