To take a stand means to fight for what one believes in. Some organizations that take a stand for what they believe in are political parties. This group fights politically for the bills and laws that their party wants through things like speeches everyday. The democratic party re recently fought for a healthcare bill last year and are still trying to get universal healthcare.
Tom Robinson took a stand for his life when he tried the escape the cultches of the police when he attempted to scale the fence but
was shot before he could get out. The only other alternative Tom has is to stay in custody of the police and wait through meaningless trials. I say meaningless because the was no chance if him being found innocent. Tom would have been killed either way.
