The most important quality needed in a social movement is determination. Gandhi is determined because he never gave up on his movement even when it was hard. Molly Raynor , co-founder of Raw Talent is determined because she never gave up on her Raw Talent kids, she believes in them and she wants them to succeed with their hidden talents. The reason why this quality is needed in many social movements because when your determined no one can stop you from trying.
Gandhi
Gandhi
Another quality needed In a social movement is Bravery. During the Indian Freedom Struggle Gandhi led an illegal salt March and willingly went to jail. But it was for a good cause ending injustices is very important to him. Molly Raynor works with kids and teens who are in gangs and who don't listen. That can't be easy, but it's also risky because if one of the staff get on the teens who are in gangs nerves they might physically asult you because they can't control their anger.
The one strategy that Gandhi and Molly Raynor, from Raw Talent used was getting allies. Gandhi got allies through now illegal salt March and Molly Raynor and the Raw Talent participants got allies by doing performances, poetry slams and movie premiers. People followed Gandhi because he was a positive man, yea he broke some laws, but it was for a good reason. Molly Raynor and her Raw Talent kids gained allies in a positive way and for a positive movement. This quality was needed because without Gandhi and Molly's allies their movements wouldn't have became a big thing. Gandhi's injustices would've never turned into justices and Molly's participants would've never changed their life.
A lesson that I learned was you need to put in work to get what you want. If Gandhi didn't breake laws and do illegal things such as the salt March, India wouldn't have been free today. If Molly Raynor didn't get the word out and schedule performances she wouldn't have had Raw Talent open to this day. Everything that people have is because of hard work. These two activist prove that it Is not easy to get what you want you have to work for it.
