SOCB30H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 11: Kendrick Lamar, Idle No More, Herd Mentality
Document Summary
Socb30 lecture 11 social movements: case of the 1960s u. s. civil rights. Laws create the conditions for symbolic belonging: charter of rights and freedoms; multiculturalism policies; naturalized citizenship. To close the gap between the law on books and what is executed and enforced. To remove and challenge discriminatory forms of citizenship. Substantial movements: black lives matter not a moment, a movement . Call to action for all people to realize that murder of blacks (especially young men recently) cannot be tolerated. Diversified beyond the people who protest and tweet. Beyonc at super bowl, kendrick lamar grammies: idle no more. Challenge c45 and discriminatory aspects of indian act. Just like black lives matter web/online presence is important. Frames itself as a peaceful movement, peaceful protest. Worried that even though they are peaceful that backlash will come back and affect them and aboriginal children, etc: bds boycotts divestment and sanctions against israel, until it complies with international law.
