Activists serves as a voice to those people who want to make a revolution because of the mistakes or incorrect systems of the government and society. They try to voice out their concerns and aims for peace,just and equality such as movements of LGBT community.
Activists are people who campaign for social or political change. They do public protest or rally. They serve as the voice for those who can't express their deep concern for the society.
One of the most well-known activists is the LGBT group. LGBT stands for "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender". They call for a change in the way people treat them. They want freedom of expression. They want the society not to arbitrate their means of showing up themselves.
Another one is the women's rights activists. It's a group of women trying to call for equal rights and opportunities for all men and women.
Some other activists are the following: - animal rights advocates -civil rights leaders - environmental organizations - peace activists ( I bet it's self-explanatory what these activists are trying to reform.)
For many Americans, the American Revolution chained their views of the enslavement of African Americans in that they started to view slavery as a hypocritical evil since they had just fought for their own "freedom" from Great Britain.
The Emancipation Proclamation of 1863 marked the official beginning of freedom for enslaved African Americans in the Confederacy, although many did not hear of it for several months.
