Most people think that, overall, sports are a good activity for most children. Taking part in sports has many benefits that help a child to grow and become a good citizen. However, there are some sports which are not so good in other ways. That is because they impact and affect the environment in a negative way.

God intended it to be. In my and my grandmothers opinion there should have never been segregated buses, restaurants, bathrooms, or water fountains. Everyone is created equally and no one has the right to tell another person they are not worthy to sit in a public facility. I am thankful that we don’t have to go through the same issues the people had to go through during the Civil Rights Movement.

alone the quiet, dignified classy group. There is all different kinds of people that attend the club, but they all seem to fall under three categories the classy, the trashy, and the sassy. The rich people would fall under this category. They usually sit in the VIP, and mind their own business with their kind. Although they have no need to be at…

movement; so many people were apathetic or opposed to the cause for they had never considered what life in the U.S was like for an African American. A middle class white woman in Alabama never had the reason to wonder what it felt like to be forced to sit in the back of a bus or to send her children to lesser funded schools.
