We all have those things we care deeply about. Sometimes those concerns become so personally overwhelming we seek some way to change that which we feel is wrong; to change things for the better and hoping other people will join us in our efforts. Often the first step in bringing about change and forming a movement toward that goal begins with protesting.

Protesting is not new. Protesting in not exclusively American. Protesting can take many forms. The ministries of Christ, the Boston Tea Party, the Polish Solidarity movement, the Watts riots, the Selma March, the French Revolution, the American Civil War, Tienanmen Square, the Russian Revolution, Kent State, the 911 hijackings, suicide bombers, the Arab Spring, Suffragette hunger strikes, flag burning's and stadium kneeling are just a few examples of protest past and present worldwide

The right to protest peacefully in America is protected by law. Much that is good began in quiet protest. Empires have collapsed from it too.Use care,
