Synonyms of "Bring" and their differences
Q:
What is the difference between bring it and bring ot about ?
A:
OK. Good example. The sentence is a little informal, but is a good English sentence.
As to the difference between "bring it" and "bring it about", in the sentence you gave ("Social change for the better happens when groups of citizens try to bring it about") the phrase, "bring it about" means "cause it to happen". This sentence would not make sense without the "about".
On hearing this sentence, I would not think the speaker was not an American.
As for "bring it", the standard meaning is to carry something with you.
You tell me you have a college diploma. I say, "OK, bring it to the interview."
There is a street slang, aggressive meaning for "bring it".
I annoy you. You challenge me. You yell "Bring it on." meaning come fight me. (Hopefully just a shouting match. I'm too old to get into a real fight.) The short version of this would for you to yell "Bring it."
Does that help? Does that answer your question?
