I did not want to write a whole post on this, but no one has explored Thoreau or civil disobedience yet so....
Here a writer explores some historical connections and reasoning for physical protests in the face of "what good is it"?
Meanwhile LATIMES reports close to 100 thousand attend the war protest over the weekend and there were other protests around the country staged for those who could not make it to DC.
This comes back to the question posed in class: what's the point of civil disobedience? Will it make a difference?
I saw a little of the news coverage -- anyone want to discuss what that looked like?
