“Protest. Protest both when you believe it will work—for we have vivid evidence of when it has worked—and when you do not. The farmer-poet-activist Wendell Berry, in his book What Are People For?, wrote: “Protest that endures, I think, is moved by a hope far more modest than that of public success: namely, the hope of preserving qualities in one’s own heart and spirit that would be destroyed by acquiescence.”
