Free people of color

towards their people made them take action. They were brave people, who stood up for what was right. Their actions and way of thinking made them a great threat towards the white racist citizens. The citizens were against treating color people equally, because in their eyes color people were inferior to them. MLK and Chavez were not going to let people's way of thinking stop them from bringing equal rights to their people. MLK and Chavez spoke in front of crowds so they could gather more people…

Racism is one of the most important social issues today, because not only a few groups are discriminated, everyone is being discriminated, groups such as blacks, Hispanics, whites, Asians, and religious people. Racism has affected millions of people around the globe. The reason why I have decided to write about this is because I think that as a matter of fact this topic is very hard to speak about. And I wanted to let you all know that there still is a lot…

than their fair" and giving to those who receive less. Friedman questions, what will encourage people to work and produce if what people receive will be determined by "fairness"? To show the contrast between the "egalitarian" system of values and true equality and liberty, Friedman shows how freedom of choice and responsibility for own choices gives impetus to the development of philanthropy and the free market system, reviving civil society, imbued with the idea of the public good.

instead of color. Throughout her book, she uses the color black and white for the pictures to symbolize opposites. These opposites are freedom vs. oppression, modernism vs. fundamentalism, and peace vs. war. Satrapi also uses the colors black and white to symbolize her coming of age.

America, the land of the free and the home of the brave. America was once not as free as it is today, however. There were lots of wars, people were separated based on their skin color, and there were diseases that killed large numbers of people.

Past Americans went through so much to make us free, especially those who served our country. Because of the past events that have…

Grimes wrote of the abolitionist North, “Let it not be imagined that the poor and friendless are entirely free from oppression where slavery does not exist.” Unable…
