Research "Political movement" and "Social Movement"


Social and Political Movements
Social movements are a type of group action. They are large informal groupings of individuals and/or organizations focused on specific political or social issues, in other words, on carrying out, resisting or undoing a social change. (wikipedia)

Here are just a few examples that appealed to me

-Feminism
-Human Rights
-Fair Trade
-Free Love
-Animal Rights
-Anti-Jock Movement
-Anti-Consumerism
-Environmental Movement
-Suffrage
-Conservation
-Disability Rights
-Anti-Violence (it’s not ok)
-LGBT
-Anti-Nuke
-Smokefree
-Temperance Movement (reduce use of alcohol)
-Peace
