Question

Jana, a fashion design major, is appalled to hear that the university bookstore sells clothes made in sweatshops. In opposition to this, she and her friends form a sit-in at the bookstore. Jana can be classified as the leader of a social movement. True or False?

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Social movements are organized groups striving to work toward a common goal. These groups might be attempting to create change (Occupy Wall Street, ), to resist change (anti-globalization movement), or to provide a political voice to those otherwise disenfranchised (civil rights movements like Martin Luther King). Social movements create social change. Jana desires a change and since she started this movement she can be classified as a leader of a social movement
