I don't know what country you've been living in but in Canada "the normal channels" includes activism including "non-sanctioned activities" or what you might call "civil disobedience" to raise awareness, get people thinking and show governments that other options are possible.

Activism is EVERY BIT as much a part of democracy as voting and historically has been one of the only things that has made a difference for things everyone supports nowadays. Activism is if anything even more democratic than voting because voting happens once every 4 years and activism can happen everyday.
