The subject for the article “The Age of Protest” by Thomas Friedman revolves around today’s act of protesting and how people are “becoming more morally aroused” from these various protests. Protests nowadays are very much involved with the society as a whole because “when you get that much agitation in a world, everyone with a smartphone is now a reporter, news photographer and documentary filmmaker.” Now that generally everyone has a smartphone, he is saying that anyone can take part in any issue of importance because they can stay involved with conflicts happening over any broad distance. Also since many people are aware of different protests happening, they experience a moral debate about it as well of the decisions made during the event.
