They challenge Copernicus because
1. People back then wet not open minded. Think of it as trying to explain to your old school grandparents that being gay is okay. They are usually closed minded because that was not how they were raised. So the people did not want to be said they were wrong and they didn't want there reputations as scholars (most of them were scholars) to be tarnished. They're logic was that they weren't open minded.

Hey! I know other people are using this website so a heads up to anyone having trouble, this idea was challenged because of 1. stuborness and pride. 2. people had not discovered gravity yet so they would try to disprove spinning Earth by shooting an arrow and saying "It's not going off into the sky, is it?" at this point in time they thought that God was the thing bonding things to the Earth so there was strong argument. Hope this helped!

Arada [10]
Riots, marches, joining a group, not attending school/jobs

Riots usually ended up w a lot of death and destruction. It makes people turn their heads, but it potentially leads to more violence and anger. However, sometimes it feels the only way to make them notice.
Marches like MLK’s we're great! They show a big crowd of people who want their rights and I think it makes people want to join in more when it's peaceful, and you're showing that you're the animals they portray you to be. However even marches lead to the police fighting to stop it.
Joining a group had a place for others to feel heard and procrastinate a way to solve the problem.
Not attending school/jobs showed others how much of an impact their kind had on the world. For example, Mexicans will skip school and jobs to show how much they do for the community!
