The Rights of All People
Why were black people considered dirt?
Why were black people treated like dirt?
Why were white people the best?
Separating water fountains?
Negros had feelings just like white people.
Negros were put down so much.
Thats what Martin Luther King thought,
thats what Rosa Parks felt and all the civil rights activists.
These people stepped up and did wonderful things.
To put an end to it!
Bullies do mean and nasty things making their person feel
like no one likes them and no one wants them around.
Negros felt that way too the whites didn't want them drinking out of their water fountains,
going to the same bathroom, and didn't want them riding on the same bus.
If things were still the same today there would be so many more wars and fights everywhere.
There wouldn't be the entertainment we have today like sports.
America wouldn't be what it is today, the melting pot.
