The question that we, Americans, have to
think about, is: who fought for the black
men rights?
For the past century many black
Americans did not agree with the Jim
Crow laws. These people were ready to
risk their lives and face hard judgments
during all their existence. They try to
remain silent while being discriminated
but sometimes they expressed their
sufferance and their anger for this
ongoing unbearable injustice. One of
many examples is Rosa Parks : She was
a black woman who was arrested because
she did not let her seat to a white man on
a bus.
The new America
The new America has to forget the separate
fountains, the separate supermarkets and
the separate schools.
All humans shall be equal, and no human
shall be discriminated and no differences
shall be made between us. Said the
president at the National radio
We have today a new America a new
country that has to be united and
peaceful. A country where equality is
among us all, despite the colour of our
skin.
