You will examine one social movement, whether current or historical, and present what you have learned to your classmates. Once you understand the definition of a movement from your lesson and the chapter reading this week, be sure to search for additional information on the movement you have chosen. The previous page, called "Social Movement Examples" has some great videos on the gay rights movement, the environmental movement and the civil rights movement, so you can focus on these if you choose to. I highly recommend watching the ACT-UP video in any case, because the video clearly addresses the series of questions you will seek to answer for the response to the AIDS epidemic or any other movement you choose to investigate.

Question 1: What are the goals of the movement?

Question 2: What are the tactics used?

Question 3: Was the movement successful? Why or why not?

Question 4: Who participates?

Question 5: How is the movement organized and what are some of the interest groups participating in the movement?

Question 6: Who are some of the movement leaders?

Question 7: What resources are available to the movement?
