Do you believe our generation can continue the fight for Civil Rights? After the death of Ms. King and Ms. Park I have been questioning the on going struggle. Granted, I am so thankful that I have experienced such powerful women of history. This also had me thinking of the time in High school when I met Betty Shabazz, during the opening of the Malcolm X library in San Diego. I cried and was so humble b/c of what she represent. I'm scared for our generation. I am not sure if we can pick up what so many influential blacks and other minorities have contributed to this thing we call America.
Now a days it seems like we have it so good that we forget who fought for our rights. Or who was killed for us to be able to have the option of attending any school we want, sitting where we want, eating, marrying who we want and etc...
I know this is long and drawn out but I do feel we address this as an issue. I am very opinion minded to opinions so feel free to say what you please. Also, I love education so enlighten me! TIA
