why not have the wherever Dwarves or Midgets?  
Where and how can I start a movement? Maybe by starting a riot or something?  

The thing  is that I want to get with the times and I feel like becoming an activist or a revolutionary or whatever. I know I'm not a millennial or anything. But they say it's never too late.

I suggest going on strike. That is, ...
1. Hunger strike: set up "shop" in a publicly viewable place, where media (TV news, print news) can follow and document your protest. Stop eating COMPLETELY until the Giants change their name or until you are dragged off to the hospital or morgue.
2. Silent protest strike: swear off talking and writing (including e-writing: blogging, posting, etc.) until the Giants change their name. Be sure that your protest is covered by the media. Do not talk or write. Answer their Qs by nodding your head or motioning with your hand.
3. Buy a large number of Giants season tickets. Each day, in a public place, burn one ticket for all to see. Make sure that media reps are present. Tell the media that it is your intention to burn tickets until the Giants change their name.  
4. March Against Giants or Giant Satyagraha: start walking from "home" (LA? LV?) to NJ to make your point about how important this is to you and any followers who join you along the way. By the time you and your millions of followers get to Giants Stadium (MetLife Stadium) in NJ, you will have made your point and the Giants will capitulate.
.
I think that the Hunger Strike will be the most effective, so try that first.

... to start your movement.

Good luck!

Lets be honest the name change was due soley because the sponsers kicked up fus (as there have been court cases and protests for years over the team name), but yet they did not have an issue with the name when they sign the deal with Washington and they had no problems with being assoicated with the team with all of the other suspect behavior of sexual harrassement and drug use going on within that organaization. On another note, a CFL team has changed their name too.
