BR- 8/30/13

In this situation its kinda hard to figure out weither its fair or not. To me its unfair and its because of one women that 25 people had to leave. And for what because they were black? Thats unconstitutional either way you look at it.

I have a dream assigment

We cannot walk alone

What I think Dr. King meant by this is that we cannot change the world by ourselfs. We need other people of other ethinc groups helping us along the way to make this world better. Just african americans cant make a differance it takes all of us working together to change the world.

I have a dream speech

1. 100 years later negros still not free.
2. Emancipation Proclamation this momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves.
3. In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a check.
4.This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
5.Nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning.

6. There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights.
7. "I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal.'"
8. "This will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with a new meaning, "My country, 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing.
9. "Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"
10. America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."

Read the following article and then state YOUR opinion for the questions below

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/08/26/second-suspect-arrested-in-death-of-wwii-veteran/2699023/

1. Should the two boys be tried as adults? why or why not?
I think they should cause they targeted a elderly man that was defenseless and the same man ended up dying in the hospital a a few days later.

2. Should their identity remain undisclosed or since the crime is heinous? justify your answer?
I really dont know. I guess after the court date release the names and photos of the people that comitted this crime.

3. What can we as a society do to keep crimes like this from happening?
Honestly i dont think there is anything that we can besides try ti teach kid when they are young about how there actions afect other people.
