You can use the dictionary all you want, but the connotation of "deviant" was clear in the comment. Also, the attention was about social and civil rights. Regardless of the number of people said rights are protecting, rights as a whole is something worth our attention and publicity. If one black woman is sitting in a bus of 10 white people and she stays in the front, that's well worth our time and reflection. If one percent of our population are earning their rights after years of suppression, I think there is cause there to announce that to the community and the world.
