We should celebrate the selfless individuals that have given their lives to fight for the right causes to ensure that peace and justice prevail in our country
Activists face many challenges and consequences for their advocacy compared to the helpless groups they represent. Being at the forefront to spearhead fights, activists fight for what they believe in and accept being held accountable for whatever outcome. They are also blamed on many occasions for the actions of the groups they represent despite having nothing to do with it. Most of these targeted groups represented by activists are vulnerable, fear judgment and stigmatisation, among other consequences they might have to experience after publicly talking about their pains and struggles. Many also lack the audacity to speak up or even advocate for what they believe is right.
