What Does Good Do?

"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good people do nothing"

Evil does take over when the good people just sit by and watch what is happening, however people are not good if they witness bad being done and do not do any thing about it that makes them the accomplice. For example in The Kite Runner, Assef calls Hassan and Ali out of their names plenty of times, and the narrator Amir does not say anything to defend them, which makes him as bad as Assef because he does not say anything. A person is not good when they do not try to help the person or people that are in distress. Good people help and try to make a difference, like MLK he was a good person at heart because he stood up to the people of the America to try to create a difference in society. If everyone just sat back and minded their business and said nothing about wrong being done, the world would be a disgrace.
