Lessons From History: Convert Jantar Mantar’s Woes into a Mighty Opportunity | The Quint
FThe Jantar Mantar protests have raised a bigger question than the immediate demands of the protesters: what happens when a new generation finds its political voice?The protests of 20 July 2026 saw thousands of young people take to the streets, with Gen Z using memes, protest music and social media alongside more traditional forms of political mobilisation.
But history offers some important lessons. From student protests in Britain and Taiwan’s Wild Lily movement to South Africa’s #FeesMustFall, youth-led movements have taken very different paths — from confrontation and coercion to dialogue, concessions and lasting political change.
