Radicals

    Radicals are the root of all progress. Have you ever done something radical and felt really good about it? In a world of convention, being unconventional takes courage. All our lives we are taught compliance. We learn to obey, we are careful not to rock the boat, and we lose our natural appetite for questioning – that childish insistence to know why. We are schooled in the ways of group-think, discouraged from challenging the status quo. And those who dare to question the ingrained assumptions, to challenge the established order, to reject popular opinion, are labelled radicals, outcasts, troublemakers, fringe lunatics.
