With all of our guest speakers, I have learned a lot about how art can be used to showcase past and modern concerns within society. There are many different types of art that can be used to display social concerns. It all depends on how you put it together and choose to display it to the world. You need to be passionate about what you are trying to raise awareness about. If you are not, your art piece will not impact anyone. You need to understand what it is you are trying to fight for as well. If you donʻt understand, your art piece will be hard for others to comprehend. Overall, your art piece depends on how you choose to put it together and display it.

The most important connection between World History and current event advocacy is to help prevent history from repeating itself. As we all know, history tends to repeat itself over and over and over again. Whether or not the events that happened were severe or minor, there are many cases where the same events have occurred. If we are able to advocate for current events that are happening today and make a change. We can prevent history from repeating either a severe or minor tragedy. The most important and impactful idea I have gained from our guest speakers would be to take a stand and fight for what you believe in. When you have a strong feeling about something in this world that can be changed, fight for your beliefs. What good would we be doing if we just sat back and let all the unjust things in this world occur? If you decide to fight you could be changing the lives of millions of people.
