Once property we didn't have our own identity. I could only imagine how it used to be, but now I'm thankful because now I wonder where would we be? If it wasn't for Lincoln, Dr. King, or Rosa P where would we be? There would be no equality for you or me. How could that be? The United States of America preamble starts off as WE, If it wasn't for those big three I wouldn't be apart of WE. I would be just he, another African American male that faced inequality. I'm so thankful for those three because they paved the way so that I can be apart of WE, not just I but you and me could have equality. The civil rights movement perfected the WE. To Lincoln, Dr. King, and Rosa P thank you for giving me this opportunity and I plan to pass it on from you to me so the rest of the world knows that the United States of America is truly a WE.
