It can be said that activism focuses on providing proper awareness, and support to be able to make certain changes within the society and it also looks at the reactions that the people are giving in the urban areas that are related to the social issues. I can see hip-hop as activism as it has become quite influential within the years. I believe that activism should have an impact over the sociological research patterns and should also be able to bring a better and positive change in the society. It is very important to understand the way the activists behave which can help us to know the actions that will be taken by them and what will be the overall impact of it in the society.
