TED-ED: How to turn protest into powerful change - Eric Liu

The video discusses the power and limitations of protests in effecting change. It highlights the need for sustained efforts beyond protests to achieve lasting political power. Three strategies are proposed: expanding the frame of the possible, choosing a defining fight, and achieving an early win. These strategies are illustrated with examples like the Arab Spring, the $15 minimum wage movement, and the Solidarity movement in Poland. The video emphasizes the importance of civic engagement and participation in creating durable change.
