Historical movements start with the individual

Published: June 4, 2020, 6:54 p.m.

Today marks the anniversary of two significant historical movements which led to civil rights progress; the pro-democratic protests which led to the Tiananmen Square Massacre, and the passing of the 19th Amendment which gave women the right to vote in the United States. Both are movements that started with the individual and ended up changing the world, similar to change we hope protests today might bring.
