Read the following excerpt from “i stand here ironing" and answer the question. i will never total it all now. i will never come in to say: she was a child seldom smiled at. herfatherleft me before she was a year old. i worked her first six years when there was work, or i sent her home and to his relatives. there were years she had careshe hated. she was dark and thin and foreign‐looking in a world where the prestige went to blondness and curly hair and dimples, slow where glibness was prized. she was a child of anxious, not proud, love. we were poor and could not afford for her the soil of easy growth. i was a young mother, i was a distracted mother. there were the other children pushing up, demanding. her younger sister was all that she was not. she did not like me to touch her. she kept too much in herself, her life was such she had to keep too much in herself. my wisdom came too late. she has much in her and probably nothing will come of it. she is a child of her age, of depression, of war, of fear.

explanation:

civil rights vs. civil liberties. civil liberties are basic freedoms while civil rights are the basic right to be free from discrimination based on such characteristics as race, disability, color, gender, national origin, and others. discriminating against an employee on the basis of gender is a civil rights violation.

new communications technology has affected the way social movements are organized because nowadays, social movements rely on social networks and the media to get different people with a similar way of thinking in contact, and thus, get them to mobilize for a greater cause.

individuals only participate in collective action when they feel identified with it. is in this aspect that social media becomes relevant, because it guarantees communication among all individuals and organizes the social actions that are going to be carried out, i.e., the social movements.

in addition, being covered by the media is important to validate the message and make it relevant in the social agenda, as well as to reach more people who can share interests, appealing to public sympathy for their cause.

in conclusion, it is by social networks and social media that social movement is given birth; by connecting different individuals with similar ideas and organizing them to mobilize for a greater cause.
