When most people hear the word "defiant", they think of a person who refuses to follow the rules put in place by authority, such as a child defying their parents. Rarely do people ever think about the positive side of being defiant: standing against the 'norms' of society to be who you really are or to do what you believe is right.
Sometimes, being defiant isn't just an act of rebellion. Sometimes, being defiant is a push for change. Those who fought against slavery were called defiant and rebellious. Today, those same people are considered heroes.
So what does it really mean to be defiant? To rebel against authority, or to stand up for what you believe in?
