    Does peaceful resistance to laws positively or negatively impact a free society? I believe a good example for this topic is “Letter from a Birmingham Jail- Rev.

    this is a truth that applies to the human race and to no particular race of men. There is not a person in this courtroom who has never told a lie, who has never done an immoral thing, and there is no man living who has never looked upon a woman without desire.” This quote is extremely powerful because it shows how Atticus is desperately trying to tell the jury that they shouldn’t be judging Tom by the color of his skin but by the facts being presented to them. This shows individualism on…
