in his letter from Birmingham jail says that an injustice anywhere can lead to injustice everywhere. Which when we look at is very true, if we do not stop an injustice going on in our society then it would become a custom to everyone living in that society. Just like how the German people accepted the anti- Semitic laws that Hitler passed just because no one really persuaded others into putting a stop the madness. Throughout history we have learnt that rioting is not a good way to effect change. When we look at the work of people who carried out civil disobedience, most of them can say that they achieved their goal. Unlike the rioters who mostly ended up being killed or thrown into jail. Civil disobedience has been used by so many leaders and role model in our society to change an unjust law. It is a strategic means of obtaining justice and it is our right to do so, according to Thoreau. Looking through the course of history, peace resistance to unjust laws has really aided in effecting positive change to the society. Many who have used this strategy became well known, I could only hope I get my share of fame from it. I will forever remember that civil disobedience is my right and will not be afraid to use if need
