Why protest? How to measure the success of a peaceful assembly
AUG 21, 201923 MIN
Description
UConn Journalism senior Adam Hushin dissects one of the key rights afforded by the First Amendment—freedom of peaceful assembly. In particular, he sought out the recipe for a successful protest or rally. Is it how many people attend? Is it media coverage? Hushin interviewed representatives from UConn PIRG, the Connecticut Citizens Defense League, the Women's March, the Connecticut chapter of the ACLU, and an editor from The New Britain Herald to find out how the success of a protest is measured.
