How accurate is it to say that the Black Power Movements of the 1960’s achieved nothing for the Black people? In some ways I agree that the Black power Movements of the 1960’s achieved nothing for the Black people because by 1968 little had changed, and it is therefore easy to claim that Black Power movements achieved nothing, and in fact had a negative impact on black Americans. However in some ways I disagree because the Black Power movements in the early 1960s coincided with the peak of success
People abuse power, because the power they have gives them the authority to make the controversial decisions they want. Absolute power corrupts. Meaning when you have a distinct amount of control over something eventually you come across a time when you have to make a call on what to do. Depending on the situation. For example Adolf Hitler. He had a choice to join countries like the US or Britain or follow other nations such Italy. He didn't start off in a position of power and had no means to make
Constitution Essay “We the people” were the first three words of the constitution which prevents one person from having most of the power or all of it. The power is split into three branches which are the Judicial, Executive, and two Legislative branches. That prevents one of the groups or people to have all the power.

While democracy has a simple definition, “power for the people”, the interpretations and means of executing that right by centers of power can vastly differ. In the ancient Roman republic, optimates and populares had vastly different political attitudes on who should play an active role in the government.

Too much power can change a person’s attitude, behavior, etc. Power is something that can be taken for granted or put in the wrong hands. When given a lot of power someone can go on power trips or do evil things. That is when power corrupts people. A first example of how power corrupts people is from “The Man in the Well”. “I think it’s important that we decided not to help him.” That was when the kids decided to not help the man stuck in the well.
