    Political protests are incredibly important to me because they give people a way to express their dissatisfaction and push for change. When I see others out in the streets, organizing and demanding attention to issues that matter, it reminds me of the power we have as individuals to challenge the status quo. Protests help raise awareness about injustices that might otherwise go unnoticed, and they can be a catalyst for real, meaningful change. For me, they represent a critical way to hold governments and institutions accountable and ensure that our voices aren’t drowned out. They remind me that political participation is not just a right, but a responsibility to help shape the society we want to live in.
