Abstract
Politicians are elected and selected, but mass movements transform societies. Judges uphold, strike down, or invent brand-new laws, but mass movements drag the courts, laws and officeholders all in their wake. Progressive and even partially successful mass movements can alter the political calculus for decades to come, thus improving the lives of millions.... All these were hard-won outcomes of a protracted struggle by progressive mass movements, every one of which operated outside the law and none of which looked to elected officials or the corporate media of those days for blessings or legitimacy.
