He gave an example of the idea of black people vs white people and their privileges. Also how they were treated.]]> 2023-01-17 16:15:20 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447096981 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447112235 We talked about how MLK saw the divide in America based on racial discrimination and how laws official and unofficial were made to keep minorities as "second class citizens". It is because of all the work of every skin color and race that marched with MLK we have the changes that we see today.]]> 2023-01-17 16:24:32 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447112235 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447113760 One group talked about quote 1- Mostly relating to how there are two sides to every story and place, specifically Fort Worth. There are the really dangerous parts of Fort Worth, along with the really pretty parts of Fort Worth. ]]> 2023-01-17 16:25:30 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447113760 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447115171 We talked about how we believe that the second and third quote are most relevant to us today. The second quote resonated with us because we believe school are over crowed and we might miss out on things. The third resonated with us because we would rather use our voice to justify our choices instead of using violence.]]> 2023-01-17 16:26:22 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447115171 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447115472 Our class talked about quote #2 and about the inequality in education. MLK discussed how some schools do not receive the support they need (due to segregation) and are not given the same opportunities to advance academically. We realized today how grateful we should be to have many more educational opportunities than previous generations of minority groups ]]> 2023-01-17 16:26:32 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447115472 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447116276 We talked about all of them but number 1 was most impactful. There will always be people who have and don't have. It should not matter. What matters that we treat others how we want to be treated with respect and kindness.]]> 2023-01-17 16:27:01 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447116276 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447116448 We chose quote two. Rosemont Middle School 70 years ago was an all white school, and we think it's amazing to know that today we have a high population of hispanic students. We also believe that schools are over-crowded and that not everyone has equal opportunities. CHOIR ROCKS!]]> 2023-01-17 16:27:07 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447116448 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447118599 We feel like his speech represents the civil rights era well, because it summarizes the two-sidedness in America. We think it still applies today because some people are still bias against minorities and there is more challenges for minorities to be successful.]]> 2023-01-17 16:28:31 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447118599 rachelsneed https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447123001 Quote 1: The quote is still relevant because we need to make more progress in making America united.

Quote 2: Although we are not segregated, there are still problems in school such as fighting and bullying that needs to stop. We need to see the relevancy behind this quote to realize that we are in charge of the change we wish to see.

Quote 3: This quote is significant to the civil rights era because Dr. King was being called a traitor during this speech. It is still relevant because we need to learn from history and not let it repeat itself. ]]> 2023-01-17 16:31:08 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447123001 magdalynbaldwin https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447129433 We talked about Quote #3 and how when you disagree with someone you then have to opportunity to figure out you disagree and what their point of view is. When you disagree with someone actions you can discuss why they took those actions and the background of their why. Asking and talking helps us bridge the gaps of understanding and can help make us better people and a better society. ]]> 2023-01-17 16:35:01 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447129433 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447140643 I don't think this quote is relevant today because we graduate by grade level now days. I believe.]]> 2023-01-17 16:41:20 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447140643 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447148280 As a class we discussed quote #2. In the civil rights era Dr. King brought light to the segregation of quality of education across the nation. Students of color and financial despair were not receiving the same quality of education as those those living in a higher socioeconomic class or area. We believe this is still relevant today. Students that are able to afford private education are graduating with higher levels of math and reading understanding. This will ensure they secure jobs that are higher paying, and less physical labor. ]]> 2023-01-17 16:45:44 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447148280 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447148519 We discussed qoute #2 this quote is representative of the civil rights era becuase it accentuated the lack of educational resources in the AA community. This quote is relevant today because some schools do not have equal supplies ]]> 2023-01-17 16:45:55 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447148519 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447160665 Due to many differences (exclusions, drug addictions, pregnancies, mental health, family needs, apathetic attitudes), students might not have the ability or motivation to finish high school or push themselves in higher learning.]]> 2023-01-17 16:53:01 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447160665 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447170056 There should not be two America's but only one with equal rights and opportunities. The students believed that everyone deserved the same quality of education regardless of their socioeconomic status. They believed this is still an ongoing issue because the rich have the opportunity to receive a better quality of education because they have access to more resources.]]> 2023-01-17 16:58:48 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447170056 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447210191 My class discussed Quote #1 and "The other America". We focused on the issue of education and how segregation affected African American individuals. Our class talked about the affect it has on schools today and how the country has split into two. ]]> 2023-01-17 17:24:10 UTC https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447210191 https://padlet.com/katy_langston/37f9yuibainnxqrl/wish/2447217762 Our class talked about inequality in education and how segregated schools did not get the same opportunities.
