https://padlet.com/mneill1/58 How do you think Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. or Rosa Parks would feel about equality today? Why? Avatar of Staff.Mary Ann Neill Staff.Mary Ann Neill ● 1m en-us 2018-01-18 16:07:11 UTC 2024-07-15 23:15:46 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Shakinghands.png mneill1 https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222197171 Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.

Free at last, Free at last, Thank God almighty we are free at last.

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.

The time is always right to do what is right.

I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.

I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.

I think they would feel this way because we also continued what they started by not having anymore segregation, and it states this in the Declaration of Independence that all men are equal.

They would be proud because, we have come a far way, and they have gone through very hard times.]]> 2018-01-18 16:09:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487051 jrybinski1 https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487138 I think that they would be happy because the US has come a long way. African Americans are allowed to vote, and everything that a white person could do. Although it is not perfect, African Americans are probably very happy, or at least more happy than they were in the 1950's.]]> 2018-01-18 16:10:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487138 msnyders https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487193 I believe Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would be proud because he made it so everyone is equal no matter what color and they can go in any place they want.]]> 2018-01-18 16:10:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487193 jmaes11 https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487203 I think that Rosa Parks is proud of equality today. Long ago she has been upset about how whites were treating blacks, and now she has what she's wanted. Although there is still room for improvement, I am sure that she is still happy about equality.]]> 2018-01-18 16:10:10 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487203 egoldberg2 https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487221 I think Rosa Parks and M.L.K would think there is defenitly room for improvement.I think they would think that because there are still people that don't agree with M.L.K. They could also be pretty proud because it is also really improved. Black people can have the same school, They can have the smae water fountains, and finnaly they can have the same bathroom. ]]> 2018-01-18 16:10:13 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487221 lmunzinger https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487251 I think that MLK and Rosa Parks would enjoy the equality of today, at least in most of the USA, since we have come such a long way from the end of segregation in Alabama. They would probably, however, see the imperfections in segregation today, and would definitely fight against it. Racism and women's rights are still a problem in everyday life, but if we try, I know that one day we can end it forever.]]> 2018-01-18 16:10:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487251 bnichols41 https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487302 I think today Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. would like to see how much different equality is. Although, I'm sure that they would still see some problems and the fact that some people still act in the way people did then. I think that Rosa Parks would be happy to see that black people could sit anywhere on the bus and didn't have to get up for a white person.]]> 2018-01-18 16:10:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487302 mknaffla2 https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487464 If Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was alive today I think he would be proud of how far we came to be equal, but there is still room to improve.

One more reason is that, black and white have the same schools and the same drinking station]]> 2018-01-18 16:10:57 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487602 ecummis1 https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487637 I think Rosa Parks would be proud that we have come to far, but she would think that we need a little more work on it.  There is still racisim in the world and we need to fight against it so we can win!  We have come far from how we treated people back in the 50's.  We don't segregate anymore and we have made it that people of all color can share the great things in life.  As Martin Luther King Jr. said," In the end, we will not remeber the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends."  It means that we should not remember the words that our enemies said, but our silence that we didn't say about what was wrong.  It means wehen you see something wrong or bad you should say something or do smething about it, not say or do nothing or be in silence. If you see something say something! Fight for what is right no what's wrong! Treat harted with kindness that is what will win bad people over, because if we fight hatred with hatred we will still fight. Try to make peace everyday, not madness.]]> 2018-01-18 16:11:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487637 awildhaber1 https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222487643 Think Rosa Parks will really like it and she will be happy because  other color people are welcomed here they can eat at our restaurants and i think Rosa Parks will think we need more work because there is still more bad stuff happening and bad people are still in this world

I think that they, like Rosa Parks, would think that we still need improvement on getting rid of racism. These are all people that have changed our world, and have left a powerful message that anybody can be a hero. We can all learn from them. ]]> 2018-01-18 16:11:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222488019 amihaylov1 https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222488218 I think that Rosa parks and Martin Luther king .Jr because they both made a great team. First Rosa parks wouldn't give up her seat that started the boycott for blacks .Then, when the Clew Clix clan ( i call them the cluck cluck clan cues the white makes them kinda look like chickens ) came and burned Rosa's house the browns wanted to fight back but martin Luther king .JR stopped it with this speech : Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.

There are still racist people out there, but there are more non racist people. Dr King's speeches changed a lot of people. Rosa Parks also changed a lot of people by not getting of the bus. The Klu Klux Klan were very racist people, they peed in water balloons, and they threw them at black people's cars. Dr King and Rosa Parks would love what we are doing right now]]> 2018-01-18 16:12:27 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222488467 dmetzger3 https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222488638 i feel that when they treated people with the color of this skin was not right! But today we IMPROVED A LOT there's only just a little more ways to go. But overall we are a free country and most people should have that freedom

If they came hear today they would see all of us going to the same school, church, bus, and water fountains. Also there would be no Kupa Kulks Klan attacking people because of there skin.

We are still working on helping people find that darker skin colors don't mean that they are a whole different type of people. In the paragraph , " all men are created equal" is just what we need to keep in mind. So I really think that Rosa Parks and Martin Luthar King would be fine of what we have done but still, some people still hate the color other peoples skin have and they should now that all men/ woman are created equal.]]> 2018-01-18 16:17:13 UTC https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222491093 dmetzger3 https://padlet.com/mneill1/58/wish/222493548 This quote means keep moving on with life and find ways to fix things no matter how hard they are.

Life is too amazing for that. If we think of all the possibilities, which seem to be endless, we can keep going. We need to keep going. Because stopping is giving up. We can make a difference if we try, try again. Hard work and inspiration will pave a way for us to go through. So try. It is not worth it to give up.
