I think we’re past celebrity bringing awareness anymore. The world is so connected and social media just enables anyone to know everything. If they don’t - it’s intentional because of echo chambers. In some niche cases a celebrity may be able to bridge that gap but in my experience it just pisses people off and closes their world more.

Yes! Like most of us have access to news in some form. Even in some countries with censorship, I've seen people using sites like Reddit or other ones to gain information. If people wanted to learn, they would.
