Social media as we know it wasn't around in the 1970s. But during that time, people were starting to discover new ways to talk to each other and support causes.
Environmental Activism: In 1970, groups like Earth Day began using new forms of communication. They used newsletters and community radio to tell people about pollution and how important it is to protect our planet.
LGBTQ Rights: The Stonewall Riots in 1969 were a turning point. After that, activists came together to create networks. They used pamphlets and talked to each other to share their message. This helped set the stage for how people would later use the internet to connect.
These early actions showed us that sharing information and rallying people behind a cause can lead to bigger movements for social change.
