However, his intended audience is not the only one who sees his work. His secondary audience is usually the general public who may have a different opinion about the work because it is not targeting them.

Protests have been used throughout history to bring attention to certain causes, but the most effective protests that have been used are the peaceful protest. Peaceful protesting involves logical convincing speeches which are fighting for a cause within the boundaries of law. It is possible to legally get enough support for a cause and eventually win by never once using any sort of violence. In some cases, hunger strikes by the “victims” are also done.

Many political and social change organizations have been formed over the years to protest against a multitude of issues such as social and economic inequality and corporate greed. Two of the most notable organizations are “Occupy Wall Street” and “The Tea Party”. Although the two parties were both created to attempt to create a change in some of the laws our government has passed, the two organizations are on complete different ends of the spectrum on their beliefs relating to the government. “Occupy Wall Street” is a series of demonstrations which began on September 17, 2011 that take place at Zuccotti Park in New York City.
