"On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" is an essay by Henry David Thoreau that advocates for individual resistance to government action that is immoral or unjust. Thoreau argues that people have a moral obligation to oppose governmental policies that violate their conscience, particularly regarding issues like slavery and the Mexican-American War. Through personal anecdotes and philosophical reflections, he emphasizes the significance of nonviolent protest and the importance of standing up for one's beliefs, even at a personal cost. This work has inspired countless activists and remains a pivotal text in discussions about civil rights and social justice. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
