I have a tough one for all of you with reasonable minds and conservative bents. The issue at hand is how to react to the seemingly unlimited iterations of protests and boycotts unleashed by the Left since life as they knew it changed during the early evening hours of Nov. 8.
First, a point of historical context. Boycotts are not new to politics; they are a primary tool for those seeking social change. History records that both sides utilized such weapons to great effect in the decades-running fight for civil rights. Segregationists wielded it as a punishment against those who advocated for integration. But it was Martin Luther King Jr. and the NAACP that turned these tactics into a truly effective strategy in the battle against those who refused to recognize basic civil rights for black Americans. In the process, a Woolworth’s lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina, became “boycott central” for the civil rights movement.
