Was your activism primarily related to rights (e.g. human rights, women's rights, consumer rights, native American rights, children's rights, gay rights, animal rights) and/or protection of people/animals, whether a specific group or more generally? As opposed to, say, activism on behalf of peace, the environment, anti-nuclear weapons, etc.

Stanley Milgram (August 15, 1933 – December 20, 1984) was an American social psychologist, best known for his controversial experiment on obedience conducted in the 1960s during his professorship at Yale.Milgram was influenced by the events of the Holocaust, specifically the trial of Adolf Eichmann, in developing this experiment.
His small-world experiment while at Harvard would lead researchers to analyze the degree of connectedness, most notably the six degrees of separation concept.

In 1963, Milgram submitted the results of his obedience experiments in the article "Behavioral Study of Obedience". In the ensuing controversy, the American Psychological Association held up his application for membership for a year because of questions about the ethics of his work, but eventually did grant him full membership. Ten years later, in 1974, Milgram published Obedience to Authority. He won the AAAS Prize for Behavioral Science Research in 1964, mostly for his work on the social aspects of obedience.Inspired in part by the 1961 trial of Adolf Eichmann, his models were later also used to explain the 1968 My Lai Massacre (including authority training in the military, depersonalizing the "enemy" through racial and cultural differences, etc.). He produced a film depicting his experiments, which are considered classics of social psychology.

he won Guggenheim Fellowship for Social Sciences, US & Canada for his works. he had many documentaries concerning his work, especially Obedience documenting the Stanford prison experiment,there was a CBS show BASED on him but he was never screenwriter nor actor in it, he wrote several books but on his own work, and his work was concerned with social tendency to obeying authority to encourage, in a form of social activism, because he wanted people to be less prone to blindly following bad authorities and I can explain some more but whatever, our guy is FOUND!

Nah... did you see how long the Golden Ratio one was. :shock:
One of the great things about this is how something that is really obvious to one person, is totally alien to another.
Now I have to think of something new...
