Section 2 Paper:
Pretend you are a Social Movement Theorist studying either the East L.A. Walkouts (“Walkout”) or the Anti-Police Brutality Movement (“No Justice, No Peace”).
Describe the social movement you have chosen from the perspective of two of the following schools of thought:
Resource Mobilization
[What resources -- including people, time, money, raw materials – were available to activists and how did they use them?]
Political Process
[What was the political and social context of the time? How did this impact the formation and success of the social movement?]
Social Networks
[How were people connected with each other? How large or small were activists’ networks? How dense were their networks?]
Social Movement Cycles
[This school of thought says that social movements ebb and flow, with several social movements taking place at the same time, followed by very few. If this is true, does your movement fit into a period of increased or decreased social movement activity? How so?]
Cultural Context
[What were the perceptions and feelings of people involved in the movement? How did this impact their participation?]
