The Protesters

The 20 protesters featured in Enough are a diverse group of people from all walks of life. They include:

• Rosa Parks, who refused to give up her seat on a bus to a white man in 1955, sparking the Montgomery bus boycott
• Martin Luther King, Jr., who led the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s
• Cesar Chavez, who fought for the rights of farm workers in the 1960s and 1970s
• Rachel Carson, who wrote the book Silent Spring, which helped to raise awareness about the dangers of pesticides
• Gloria Steinem, who co-founded the National Organization for Women in 1966
• Harvey Milk, who was the first openly gay elected official in California
• Nelson Mandela, who fought against apartheid in South Africa and became the country's first black president
• Malala Yousafzai, who was shot by the Taliban for speaking out in favor of education for girls
• Colin Kaepernick, who kneeled during the national anthem to protest police brutality

These are just a few of the many protesters who have made a difference in the world. Their stories are a reminder that we all have the power to make a difference, no matter how small.

The Impact of Protest

The protests featured in Enough have had a profound impact on American society. They have led to changes in laws, policies, and attitudes. They have helped to raise awareness of important issues and to inspire others to get involved in the fight for justice.

The Montgomery bus boycott, for example, led to the desegregation of public transportation in the United States. The civil rights movement led to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which outlawed discrimination based on race. The environmental movement led to the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency and the passage of the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act.

The protests of recent years have also had a significant impact. The Black Lives Matter movement has raised awareness of police brutality and has led to calls for reform. The #MeToo movement has empowered survivors of sexual assault and harassment to come forward and has led to a national conversation about sexual violence.

Protest is a powerful tool for change. It can be used to raise awareness of important issues, to challenge injustice, and to demand change. The stories in Enough show us that one person can make a difference, and that we all have a responsibility to speak out against injustice.
