“It’s easy for many queer people to shrug off the idea of civil disobedience… Civil disobedience has been called naïve by those who have turned cynical by the lack of progress made after years of struggle. It has been called reckless by those who believe the path to full equality is good behavior. There are those who believe that at the end of the day civil disobedience won’t really change anything, so why bother? It’s true; Civil disobedience isn’t going to change the minds of the Supreme Court justices or convince the bigots to join PFLAG. It’s going to change us.” from The Degree to Which you Resist is the Degree to Which You Are Free! — May 7th, 2009 by David McElhatton, One Struggle One Fight blog (http://onestruggleonefight.com/)
