      This is a wonderful article about social justice through the eyes of an American. This article starts of with a quote from a UC Berkley student who is reflecting on the Free Speech movement and Civil Rights movements of the 1960s. The article ties the ideas behind these movements into the Arab Uprisings through means of Human Rights. Through witnessing atrocities overseas, many Americans become compelled to take action to be able to try and provide the freedoms they enjoy everyday, to the people the have witnessed being stripped of any rights.
