Think back to LGBT rights....and a little further to women's rights. Were it not for activists we would not be where we are.....back before WW1 women resorted to violent demonstrations for their rights...bombings, vandalism, rioting.....do I condemn them for that? Nope because because they did that, I have the right to vote, the right to not be treated as a second class citizen, the right to be heard. Maybe...one day....black people will be afforded that same right unequivocally

This is fine an all, but Arista is the true women's suffrage expert on the forum.
