Duhigg’s assertion that strong and weak relationships have the power to motivate groups towards a single mutual goal doesn’t totally align with what I think (85). I think this can hold true in some instances. My view, however, contrary to what Duhigg has argued, is that for big social movements to occur you need more strong ties than weak ones. By attaining this you automatically gain more mutual acquaintances and therefore more people who will call in favors for you. The evidence shows that this is what occurred with the civil rights movement and Rosa Parks. Anyone familiar with the Civil Rights movement should agree that what happened with Rosa Parks and not giving up her seat on the bus was pivotal for this movement. Because she had strong and weak ties that went across social groups people were motivated to end segregation. I agree with what Duhigg calls, creating a fresh sense of identity (87). In my opinion, this motivates people even further to work towards that mutual goal that needs to be strived for.
