Equality for all!

The world needs a change where everything and everyone lives peaceful and full of hope. The important hope of all humans is the discrimination. The discrimination is everywhere in the world and people suffer from it. We need to make a change and make a proposal for all human equality and this includes most for African Americans who are also humans which are also the same.

African Americans have been discriminated all their lives and they are still discriminated against. Although the new era has come but people do not accept that they are equal and it is said in every civil right law. Now what we need is a new amendment for equality that convinces everybody to follow this amendment. There are many rights for African American and they do use them wisely but some other races just do not get that they are the same as them just different colors. A new amendment would be that "African Americans need equality and discrimination is not allowed for every discriminated act you will be arrested for 10 years". This amendment may not look tough enough but yes this could be a law just like bullying.

To conclude a proposal is to make sure that everybody in US follows this amendment and can make this strong enough to be a law which everyone must follow. The result to convince is to follow this and make sure to know the consequences that can happen. Inform your fellow neighbors, relatives, friends and US citizens so we can make a change to discrimination.

The fight for the right!



   Changes ocurred during the time Martin Luther King Jr. led the movement for new civil rights and equality for all. The civil rights movement should have contributed evrry race but this was not actually what have happened. Many of the rights were not followed in some states. Most of the african american rights were ignored and put aside just to keep treating them like they were nothing.

   The rights were emeged in a lot of states. The fourteenth ammendement was the one to protect the african americans. This right includes racial segregation, voter suppression, denial of economic opportunities and public or private terroristic violence. Discrimination was pesent worldwide but it was most specified in the Southern region and states. A civil rights movement was known as the NAACP which was a group trying to abolish discrimination against any other race but especially to African Americans. Another civil righst movement was the Brown vs. Board of Education of 1954 which then made segretation legally impermissible. Many things led to difference of equality. The civil right act of 1965 banned every discrimination of public or private employment to everyone. Also the voting right was over and everybody could vote no matter the race.

Those all were changes that made segregation banned and equal to everybody. The civil rights movement changed the US. African American can know live in peace and with equality for the rest of their lives. There is no discrimination allowed anymore.

  

   African americans have been discriminated in many ways since they first came to US. African Americans have dealt with slavery in a lot of ways. They are still being discriminated against and some racists still run around trying to be like the past. They wish to live in peace and with every single equal right they should have.
    
    The first struggle was to get out of slavery. They did not fight for their rights in that instant they needed it. The only way to get out of the slavery was from the help of the president which was Lincoln in that time. After the slavery act, they had some equal rights but there was much more than those few they had. They could work and go to school but some still were servants and much did not have those privilages. One discrimination movement was from Rosa Park who was arrested for sitting in the white area of the bus. She and other African Americans helped to struggle out of that court with the equal right of sitting where ever they wanted. They tried to resist discrimination by forming communities and groups such as NAACP. This helped although discrimination was still in hand up until the 1900's. The most important event was the movement held by Martin Luther King Jr. which was one of the most important events for black history.

   They struggled to get out of that hole of pain and suffer because of the discrimination and civil rights equality. African American were peaceful just because if something was wrong they had to pay for everything. Although people say violence starts with the color black this could only have happened because the white provoced it. http://www.encyclopedia.chicagohistory.org/pages/27.html http://www.lib.washington.edu/subject/history/tm/black.html  http://afroamhistory.about.com/

Suffering :(

 

    Ever since the first Africans sent foot to the "New World" they became slaves and this slaves were mistreted and struggling for happiness. For centuries African Americans have been treated as a second-class citizens by the United States. Actually they did not considered citizens at all. Africans were always mistreated since they moved to America. They lived poorly since they were slaves and lived harshly. The only ways Americans treated their slaves was with anger and pain.

   Slaves were whipped and treated harshly by their owners because everybody saw them as animals or savages. They used to have to rights at all, they were not considered citizen nor humans. After the slave era  the North allowed them to have rights and considered citizens they even were part of the army. The South still had slaves and Lincoln was trying to abolish it. Then the South and North united, so more and more rights were done for African Americans. The white people were angered and offended black people even to the point that they had to use violence. Many African Americans were hurt and murdered because the white people did not accepted them. One of the most violent events against colored people was the KKK which killed and tortured many colored people because of their race. After the KKK fell African Americans were free with no worries of being harmed.

Now they have rights and yes some are fewer but they have more since they first step foot in US. They had some restrictions like sitting in front of a bus or  trying to argue with a white men but this is all done thanks to the black community which got out from the hole they were in fighting for their rights. One true leader was Martin Luther King Jr. which helped his community to have more rights and be respected. Now they live equally to other although some perople do not agree with this

  African Americans have been present ever since the late 1600's. They have been through a lot, from pain to liberty and happiness. They first where brought to America as slaves and where distributed around the world but only as slaves. They came from Africa and Europeans also Americans captured them and used them as laborers for their works. Through out time they became a group used all over America.
  
 The first group of African Americans landed in America in 1619 and were sold my Dutch men to the settlers at Jamestown. In the 17th century there was over 1,300,000 Africans in U.S. This group have lived in Africa ever since the first human beings. Africans were only used for labors. They were slave for settlers who needed help and then continued on being a distribution of workers. Africans then bbecame a group thanks to the use they were utilized, as slaves. Ever since they came in US they became a group. Africans throughout Africa were normal people but since they were brought to US they were mistreated and seen as savages. They had no rights, no life or no reason to live like other white men. Actually they were treated worse than animals. Pretty much said this group of Africans were not strong at all until years later. By research African American made up a percentage of 12.5% but that was up to 2005 now it should be at least 30%.


  Africans treated as useless people in those years are now seen as a powerful group. They were held up to 1865 were then they had their rights and interests to live in. The black community grew up a lot by the 1800's. Where many Black heroes led a difference to their community. By these people the community was able to get put that gutter and into a world with equality and reasonable rights.

Carol Sanchez
Carol had a good idea on mostly talking about the Ghost Dance which was an important figure for the indians. She also talked about how the people was ignorant and this is rarely true because the abuse is pretty much ignorance.

Native Americans and the Loss of their Culture!

             The Native Americans were the first one to truely settle the Americas. Much of them lived in communities as farmers and hunters. They lived peacefully and in groups. Everything changed then when others came to claim land. Although at first the Native Americans and the white men, also known as European, used to get along well. A name for all the tribe are called Sioux, this breaks up to three well known Native Americans groups, the Dakota, Lakota and Nakota. Everything changed when the white men wanted more and needed land.
           By 1862 a major problem attacked the Dakota because they agreed to live in the reservations but with annuties. Which the government did not contribute. Angry Dakota attacked leading to the Red Cloud's war of 1866-1868.The white men wanted more land wanted minerals. President Grant demanded the land as soon as possible. Their ideas was to make reservations for the Indians. Many Indians disliked the idea. They wanted to story because of their culture.
           The idea which they wanted to divide the land into reservations. The land was divides into two reservations. One was Pine Ridge and the other was Standing Rock. Some Indians did not want to live there because of their culture. They wanted there dignity and pride not just to surrender. Sitting Bull was mad because of his and his tribe's pride grew over them and did not want to surrender against the white men. Then they moved to Canada and were treated in good ways. They had their land and rights but they could not interfere with the other tribes. Many troops died and moved back because of the rural and harsh climate. Then Sitting Bull had no choice to surrender when one of his relative died because of the treatments in Canada. Sitting Bull realized he had lost and moved to the reservation.
            Sitting Bull born a leader was now surrendering to the white men which controled everything without a protest. Sitting Bulll accompanied by his small amount of troops claimed to live in the reservation due to the lost of their relatives. Arriving at Standing Rock Reservation Sitting Bull finds himself with his son which he was now working for them as a police officer in the reservation and almost lost in the white men ways. The Lakota were not just to iving like this at all nothing was the same from raising crops to hunting their food. Sitting Bull as his nature to lead his troops demanded to be the leader of the reservation but things was just not how he wanted this reservation was owned by  General William S. Harney which was not an easy man to go through. Sitting Bull fighting and fighting for their rights landed into consequences between the Indians and the white men. This seperation ended as massacre. Troop soldiers runned by General Harney went to claim Sittin Bull and aggravated his family leading to the first rifle shot done by an Indian. This shot concluded into a massacre in December 1890 were Sitting Bull was killed and so was many of other Indians.
             Many movies where they show Indians are savages and killed many people are so called stereotypes. The white men and the Indians used to get  along good I mean real good. Yes they had their differences but not like other movies and stories say about cowboys and Indians those are just lies to entertain. The massacre of the wounded knee is a true story for sure but this is just with the Lakotas no more than others. The struggle was tough but at the end of a rain storm there is always a rainbow.
