Individuals

While some stands occur after a culmination of events and ideas, others happen because of an individual’s decision to say “This is not right.” These individuals might start groups and organizations, or even found institutions as a way to challenge the status quo and make change. Every individual has different ideals and ideas, but each one mentioned made their mark on society and took a stand about what they believed in.
