Journal #2-"For nonconformity the world whips you with its displeasure."

Mine the internet for an article about a person (contemporary or historical; famous or not)--preferebly someone you're interested in or admire--who in some way refused to conform and was either celebrated and rewarded or ostracized and punished for his actions (or both).

Compose a 200-word journal entry briefly summarizing the circumstances and draw some conclusions based on the outcome.

For Monday.
