MLK

    If Dr.King was to walk in my class today he would be proud and then again he will not be proud.He would be proud at the fact  that blacks,whites,and Hispanics are all in one class together without people saying racist remarks towards others.Dr.King said in a speech I've been to the mountain top '' we have some difficult days ahead ''. What this means to me is that he knows that things are going to get worse before they get better. He knows that there is much more work needed to be done. Today's generation doesn't really understand what he and others had to go through for blacks, Hispanics, and women to have equal rights and blacks to be in the same school and restaurants and bathrooms as whites.

    The reason Dr.King would be so proud is that we have a black president,blacks are in the same schools as whites getting the same education,women have equal rights like everyone else they can get any type of jobs.There are female officers,women in the marines,the army,some are women have higher positions then most men. Everything he ever wanted back then has came true not just because of Dr.King but many others as well.He would not be proud because there are black kids out here making these dumb decisions when he fought and died for use to get a better education and to give us an equal chance to do better but they don't want to take advantage of the fact that someone put their life on the line for them and their future.

     He would mostly be upset honestly because even the kids that do come to school everyday they come to school and just clown around and be very nonchalant about being here. They don't take advantage of someone giving them a good education. They don't understand how hard and how long Dr.king and others have fought to get us here in these schools  and these jobs. These opportunity period,he would have a fit if he was to walk into one of these class rooms let alone walk down the street. He would come to the school and see kids walking down the hall way with their pants down to their knees and hear someone saying the ''N'' word every ten seconds.
