Specifically, I shift focus from the individual to the situation to explore dynamic influences on bystanders' assessments of protest situations organized around two issues: attempts to 'reclaim' the clitoris in order to liberate women's sexuality and their use of the swastika inside the Star of David as their group's religious symbol. cache/qr46qz23633.txt txt/qr46qz23633.txt
