    Peaceful protests work because they get you out and you meet like-minded people and act together as a community.

    It you go out there hoping for instant change, then you’re missing the point. You need to talk to people, exchange contacts, schedule more get-togethers, look to talk with your local government as a group, amass enough votes to get someone among you as a representative or their staff.

    Do this in enough cities that the protests took place and then it’s done.
