Violation of our Civil Rights                                                                                                      Civil Rights = Equality- Inequality        



The struggle for Civil Rights have had an impact on the United States. The people and the development of this country.   
The world has change and the leaders like Malcolm X and Martin L. King Jr had fought against the oppression in an everyday life. In every movement we have had a social change, because of leaders like Malcolm X and Martin L. King Jr.  Malcolm X was a leader who was called a hell riser who did not take any BS from anyone. Malcolm X believe in an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.                        
As for Martin L. King Jr, he believe in a nonviolent movement, Mr. King believe if there were any unjust treatment that we as African American experience then there should be a boycott.                    We should know that Malcolm X and Martin L. King believe in fighting for equal rights. Now in 2016 we are still waiting to see if equality will come about. Both men had a dream and they have helped to advance and lead the way of the civil rights movement. They so believe in it that they gave their lives for equality.                 Malcolm X and Martin L. King Jr fought for equality we can still see today in 2016 that we are still fighting for equality. As people are pretending to be colorblind they can clandestinely advance their goals while asserting that race has nothing to do with any of their action. For instance a case of 2013 Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman a white man  
who saw a African American young male walking in the neighborhood why at that time ( he) Trayvon was a threat in this neighborhood? Question remains if Trayvon were white would he have been a threat to this neighborhood?  The answer it is (No). Because of Trayvon skin color and he was a male Mr. Zimmerman decide to chase Trayvon Martin down and kill him. Now I say this where's the colorblind in that case? So will there ever be equality in United States with the lies and deceit the question remain?
