Many movements fail because of the growing violence involved. The Black Lives Matter movement protests against the seemingly built-in societal prejudice blacks face. While their cause is honorable, their movement has been tainted by excessive violence. Disobedience is not effective when innocent bystanders are consistently harmed. The violence associated with Black Lives Matter has hindered the movement's ability to bring positive societal change. Inciting unnecessary violence, such as provoking policemen, has made the movement too radical to bring about positive reform. Disobedience is effective in shedding light on controversial topics, however, not all change is positive. But more evidence supports the argument that disobedience provides an peaceful method for the voiceless to protest
