the better? Use evidence from at least 2 of the sources we've used in this

Answer and Explanation:

Thoreau claimed that it was fair to promote civil disobedience when the government promoted malefic laws that promoted the return of humanity. This concept was also defended by Martin Luther King, Malala, among other great thinkers who fight against unjust and harmful laws. We can confirm that the rejection of these types of laws and disobedience are essential to prevent those laws from continuing in a region. In this case, civil disobedience as a form of resistance to the denial of rights must be defended, but it must be defended, a time that the laws must attend to the will of the people.
