As long as we as human beings continue to gravity towards a concept of have and
have-nots then the only way to change an existing system will to call attention
to it.  The only way to do that is to "challange" that system.  Sometimes its
breaking the law, sometimes its a sit-in sometimes is the courage of a singular
individual, sometimes is the cowardice of a group.

The haves will in more cases than not do things at the expense of the have-nots
