gender wars-
Gender wars is the idea that men and women should be against each other and not equal. The idea that one gender is superior to the other (usually men).
Culture wars- Culture wars is when different groups have different beliefs and values and there are arguments and conflicts that happen because of these different opinions.
A well known and recent example of culture wars would be the black lives matter protest which gained most attraction in 2020 after George Floyds death.
This Gained the movement popularity because it really showed the racism within the police force in America and how people of colour were extremely mistreated. This is because a video came out filming George Floyds arrest where a police officer put his knee on George’s neck cutting of his airway which killed him. The officers were aware that he could not breath as he did say that multiple times but they did not care nor did the listen.
Due to this horrific act these protests started and gain a lot of popularity to the point where a poll in America came out and statics showed that 15 million to 26 million people participated in these black lives matter protests.
However these protests upset mainly American conservatives who believed that this movement was wrong and though it should be “All Lives Matter” and a big celebrity Kanye West also wore a “white lives matter” tee shirt. These completely make fun of the whole BLM movement because everyone one is important but its not like white people are struggling with prejudice or anything like that so we don’t need a movement.
