As someone who deeply values human rights and inclusion, I completely understand with your perspective. It has always been the people that drive real societal change at its core. Sometimes standing and demanding one's rights as you put it is the only path to a truly free and just society with centered equity for all stakeholders.
Unfortunately, many take justice in their own hands unleashing violent prone mannered interests towards achieving societal needs . This is unfortunately unsustainable suggestion to progress forward instead gradual reshuffles can bring depthful impartations which contribute optimally across various fundamental acclaims by voices emerging diverse sources.
