People see no immediate change are therefore become apathetic and pessimistic. Change happens over huge periods of time, and I believe in certain aspects of change happening years after I’m gone. However the progression that leads to this change needs people with hope striving towards it, and even if they don’t see the eventual results, they’ve served as a stepping stone.
Any major progression in history didn’t happen overnight. There were people fighting to change peoples opinions about slavery for hundreds of years before there was real change, and it started to become a widely helf belief that slavery was wrong instead of vice-versa.
I’m sure a lot of the activists in the first years of the movement became apathetic and gave up, but obviously some didn’t.
