As a monthly newsletter formed in 1969 by a group of Asian American students at the University of California, Los Angeles, Gidra helped raise awareness about social and political issues concerning the Asian American community on campus and at large. The newsletter had an expansive reach for a publication of its kind: around 4,000 copies were published each month. A student writing a history paper, however, hypothesizes that Gidra’s influence cannot be measured by the number of newsletters published monthly alone.

Which finding, if true, would most directly support the student’s hypothesis?

This finding would support the student's hypothesis that Gidra's influence cannot be measured by the number of newsletters published alone, as it suggests that the reach and impact of Gidra extended beyond just the initial 4,000 copies printed each month. By people sharing and passing along their copies of Gidra to others, the newsletter was able to reach a wider audience and potentially have a greater influence on the Asian American community.
