African Americans Should Stay At Home

In the 1960’s, black and white individuals were not recognized as being equal. The two races were treated differently, and the African Americans did not enjoy the same freedoms as the whites. The African Americans never had a chance to speak their mind, voice their opinions, or enjoy the same luxuries that the white people attained. Through various actions/efforts like the lunch counter sit-ins, freedom rides, and bus boycotts, the black people confronted segregation face on and worked to achieve equality and freedom.

"If a man strikes the daughter of a free man and causes her to lose the fruit of her womb, he shall pay 10 shekels of silver. " Money is not worth the loss of a baby. More needs to be brought to bring justice to this. Even worse, if it was a slave woman, he shall only pay two shekels. This is truly the worst thing that can happen to a woman if she is pregnant and losing her not even born child, and only get money for it.

In the book of “Just Mercy”, a case involving a 14 year old girl who was mentally ill, homeless, and had suffered from abuse, was convicted of second degree murder after causing a fire to burn down a house in which two individuals were killed. Trina was later tried as an adult and sentenced to life imprisonment. While in prison Trina was raped by a male prison guard and impregnated. Many factors within this case are conspicuously able to identify the corruption within the criminal justice system. Trina was tried as an adult in her case which was found to be unfair. Also, due to her mental illness, Trina’s brain is not able to properly function as well as others. This causes a huge gap in her case because this factor was not taken into account while her case was being held. As a mentally ill individual , Trina is not able to form an intent to kill. Her mental illness prevents her from being able to

Some people may argue that “Only a tiny minority of Americans ever owned slaves. This is true even for those who lived in the ante-bellum South where only one white in five was a slaveholder. Why should their descendants owe a debt? What about the descendants of the 350,000 Union soldiers who died to free the slaves? They gave their lives. What possible moral principle would ask them to pay (through their descendants) again?”( Horowitz) Unfortunately i disagree with this argument because African American had to face cruel punishment but

Abraham Lincoln running for president in 1860 was not appreciated by the southern states, that supported slavery. The "Black Lives Matter" movement is an extremely important thing in the world today. in the first ingural address Abraham Lincoln wanted to make slavery illegal but in order to get the votes from the Southern States, he could not propose that he wants to terminate slavery. In my opinion, the police brutality towards African Americans connects to Abraham Lincolns inagural Address, becuase altough slavery has been trying to be stopped for over 200 years, discrimination stillexists today. Ifeel it is wrong to brutalize African American citizens because of their color and stereotypes slavery has come to an end. but the discrimination

“This is our hope, and this is the faith that I go back to the south to,” (martin Luther King JR. Some people should respect colored people a lot more, just because they have colored skin doesn’t mean they should get treated differently. Treat people the way you want to be treated. If you have nothing nice to say then don’t say it at all. All he wanted was colored people to be treated the same as white people. If you could go back and see how African Americans were treated you would want to change stuff. I don’t see why African Americans treat differently because their skin color. Wouldn't you want to be treated the same as everyone else?i know I would wish and pray to be treated like everyone else.

After Rights were given to African Americans that declared them citizens and gave them the ability to vote many white southerners with political power were not happy.The redeemer legislation were opposed to the changes the 13th,14th,and 15th amendments made to the position and role of african americans in Southern society and can be deemed unconstitutional. The Redeemers were a white political union in the South during the era of the Reconstruction that had opposing views to the changes occurring and fought politically and physically to keep certain rights away from African-Americans. They were lead generally by the rich landowners and professionals who controlled Southern politics in most areas during that time. They had a range of tactics to prevent

I think yes, because they did a lot of things that is worth celebrating. They do have a lot of older culture. Africa’s history is work. You can learn a lot of things from them. They were really big and really smart they knew how to do a lot of things. I think that all of their hard work and all the things that they did should be honored and celebrated. They could do a lot of things themselves. They were poor but they could manage a lot of things. They even had 11 churches. Therefor, in my opinion they should be celebrated for all the hard work and the history and all that they have done.

Shah Bano approached the courts for maintenance from her husband, as she had no means of economically providing for herself or her children. Seven years had lapsed by the time the case reached the Supreme Court, where Section 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code was invoked, and she was to be given the maintenance due to her. It is to be noted here that Section 125 (Order for maintenance of wives, children and parents) applies to everyone, irrespective of caste, creed, or religion . This judgement wasn’t the first time that a divorced Muslim woman had been given maintenance under the provision.

Santadevi, a nineteen year old Indian woman married as an infant, is seeking to annul her child marriage.
