Thought For The Day

. . . before people can mobilize for collective action, they have to develop a proud and angry identity and a set of claims that go with that identity. They have to go from being hurt and ashamed to being angry and indignant. . . . protesters need targets, preferably local and accessible ones capable of making some kind of response to angry demands.
