When does a movement begin precisely? With a protest? An idea? A law? No one knows the answer, because for each version of history, there is another, intertwining one that makes us think differently about what happened. The thousand branches of truth on the tree of life are what make it beautiful.u00a0This has been a central point of discussion, as protests have persisted around us these past weeks.

We’ve seen fantastic things during these protests — so many people on the streets who would have been wary of demonstrations in the past; so many passionate and intelligent voices; discussions about feminism — an idea which always struggles with prejudice and ignorance, presenting themselves as a dislike of labels; talk of sex-education in schools.
