What is civil disobedience? Have you ever done it? Can it change society?
By definition civil disobedience is is the active refusal to obey certain laws demands and commands of a government or of an occupying power (wiki) in layman terms to ignore the law if it is unjust to society. I am not quite sure if I have personally refused to do something against the government power wise, but I have broken simple laws like street laws. Yes of course Civil Disobedience no questions asked change society. A powerful movement that goes against the law will create change in the society and gives people a voice to fulfill their rights (1st amendment)
