Hello Adrienne and Dora, Regarding the message of March 7th, I had some doubts about whether "one person can found an entire movement". About the question, after analyzing it from the beginning, I admit that I made a mistake and changed my thinking. In fact, a social movement is built collectively in the context of sociology (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_movement), which led me to look for my sociology professor to discuss the Free Software Movement. After the conversation, I came to the position that "he who makes the first move, makes it". For example, in the revolt of the Brazilian labor movement, there were more than 70,000 workers who crossed their arms for the exploitation of the working class, but there was one who said "we need to stop, because we are being unfairly treated and exploited". On the other hand, the origin of a movement can vary, each one has its own formation and its own history, and in the free software movement, historically, its founder is RMS. And all of us, just like him, build this movement today. Regarding LibrePlanet 2022, in my opinion, I think it would be nice if he spoke up. In fact, his speech is important, as is everyone who wants to speak at the event, but it is necessary to see if he is interested in participating this year. Thank you for your patience and clarifications! -- Kaio Duarte Costa (Kaiod) _______________________________________________ libreplanet-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://lists.libreplanet.org/mailman/listinfo/libreplanet-discuss
