Chapter 2:
Quote: "In the activist world, it is the demonstration or rally that one organizes that attracts people, gets media coverage, and influences politics."
Response: This quote sticks out of me as I find it to be very true. In order to get your point across the world, you must create some sort of attraction to your cause. Once you get the people's attention, then the media will start to cover it and politics will eventually get influenced.
Quote: "Physical and mental space is key for creativity. A space away from the ordinary routines, obligations, and distractions of daily life."
Response: Having time away from your daily routine is what will bring out your creativity as you will be in an unfamiliar place. Your mind will begin to develop ideas that haven't been in your head before.
Chapter 3:
Quote: "This is the historical Jesus: the Mediterranean Jewish peasant taking on religious authorities and the Roman Empire and building a revolutionary movement two millennia ago. Not Jesus Christ, but Jesus of Nazareth."
Response: I have never heard of this story before I found it a little interesting. The name Jesus of Nazareth is something I have never come across before.
Quote: "When we protest we are also demonstrating to the world who we are, what we believe in, and how we’d like the world to be."
Response: This seems like an appropriate way to describe what people are doing in a protest. They are telling the world their beliefs and ideologies.
