2/7 Sheku

 "Facts and truth don't speak for themselves. They need to be made into symbols and incorporated into stories that people can make sense of and care about, They need our help." 

I resonate with this quote because I enjoy learning when it's fun, and I know millions or even billions can relate to it. Because of its limited capacity for attention and working memory, the human brain can only focus on a small amount of information at a time. Making things easier to understand will increase the chances that someone will actually learn them.t.

"Yes, they’d all heard a great lecture and been outraged by a set of facts, or may vividly recall their first political meeting. But what brought them to their work was usually far more personal and emotional." 

As I mentioned earlier, people have emotional and cognitive resonance, and need constant engagement to memorize efficiently. Understanding something emotionally is just as important as memorizing it or trying to understand it, since it will give it yet another reason to stick in your subconscious.




Art Activism is a powerful fusion of art and advocacy, where artists intentionally create works that engage with political or social issues. It is noted in the article that the guys were fixing the pothole, and their neighbors were paying attention to them, gaining more attention from the public. There was also news about the guys fixing the pothole, which started to be traded and then posted on Youtube. Using the internet to share protests and signs that have posted online can be very interesting to people, which shows how some things can be online that can catch their attention.
