How many people have to do strikes, marches and boycotts for people to get racism to stop?Aren't you tired of this aren't you tired of being judged by people you don't know? Well you should stop judging too! You say you don't judge but don't tell me that you have never looked at some and put a labeled them based on how they look or dress or the color of their skin. Remember that saying "Don't judge a book by its cover?" Will things ever get better? Have you ever actually paid attention and have you ever tried to make a difference?
Martin Luther King is a man who made or trie to make adeference. He did not use violence. He made many marches and hungerstrikes, long protests and boycotts. He gave a speech about the dream he had for the world to become a better place, for racism to stop and for everyone to be treated equally. That is all he wanted. Yet, he knew that it was hard to get along. He was killed tyring to make a difference. How many more people will it take for the world to understand racism is wrong?
There is always some people that think they are better then others. People do this all the time. They won't sell something or won't offer a job because of someone's faith or where they come from or the fact that they are immigrants. Why do some people not consider that racism? Just because they broke a law? Well Martin Luther King Jr. broke a law and he's a national hero. Rosa Parks broke a law and we paint her image on murals. Is it not heroic to pass a border to build a better life for a family?
People think things have change. It is not only the government and the president at fault. It's easy to blame them, but the reality it is everyone else's fault, too. Racism starts by someone judging someone else. It starts in homes and in neighborhoods and filters into the government. We can blame others, but here is a question: who are we/you to judge someone? Will the world ever change? Not unless we change.
Many people can try to make a difference.I t may never really happen because you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. You cannot make anyone do anything but you can help change their mind. How many other people will it take to change someone's mind? The world was maybe never meant to bein peace but that doesn't stop us from trying. If there are enough people in the world that really want it bad enough it will happen. Until then what will happen?
