After reading the article that was provided I have a better understanding of why social media is a very great tool to use for activism. Social media is a great way to get recognition in subjects that many people wouldn’t know about outside the internet. I think when many casualties happen we all know of it pretty fast because of social media and many spread awareness quickly. 

There are so many forms of activism and some things that we do are considered activism. I didn’t realize that sharing posts was a form of activism. I think it’s amazing how we get the courage to fight for what we believe in based on the people from the past. People from the past stood up for what they wanted and made a huge impact on future generations. 

I enjoyed watching the film because it gave me a behind-the-scenes of what it takes to be a candidate and how much hard work these people put into this election. I’ve noticed that a lot of people belittle women and make backhanded comments to them. I believe that its film is very inspiring to watch. Even though they have doubts within themselves about what they are doing they still continue to do so because it is something they believe in. I find this very admirable since not many have the courage to do what they are doing, especially running against someone who has a lot of power. Many people were intimidated by these people in power but these women were not and they took the risk to fight for something.
