For months, large-scale protests around the world have sought to bring attention to the Palestinian cause. Such was the case on Monday, as protestors shut down San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge , snarled traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City, and even blocked traffic to Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.
The protests were largely meant to remind the world of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, but the effectiveness is still a matter of debate. What social media may allow, however, is for a cause to trend. "Protests are staged to draw attention to a particular situation, and shutting down a main thoroughfare or a large airport will definitely draw attention to the cause," suggested Campbell.
