Being able to understand, power movements are very deep topics. Social movements of the 1970s back, then was often viewed in terms of political control, legal rights and only institutional access. Reviewing the content has made me understand that power was no longer seen as something only held by governments or institutions, but were able to be embedded and social norms media representation and economic systems. A lot of these movements challenge the traditional power structures and exposed how power was unequally distributed across race, gender, sexuality, and class lines. A big thing I noticed is understanding intersectionality, which was a major development with a greater focus that recognized how the overlapping identities affected experiences of oppression and power. It wasn’t as emphasize in the 1970s but has become more emphasize through modern time. The 1970s, we became such a powerful time for activism were various groups for marginalized communities began to speak up more bully and start pushing for an outlasting change. These kinds of movements matter because they lay the foundation for many rights and freedoms of what we have today and we’re able to teach later generations how to organize protest and use voices for change.
