At times, the protest itself may morph to become focused on the immediate issue at hand:
the state’s use of violence as a means to punish without due process and deter future activism.
For today’s anti-war protesters, they have all the infrastructure they need to broadcast a narrative about their beliefs directly to a global village.
Individually, they’ve been practicing for this moment for years by becoming accustomed to using their phones as political tools.
While the Occupy movement and advances in technology inspired new journalists to publish lots of raw and unfiltered content in 2011,
generation Z was born in it and are more digitally savvy than any group before.
In many respects, the youth of today have a ready-made infrastructure to shift control and buckle institutions,
but the key will be for students to sustain the pressure to ensure they meet their goals.
