" Now is the time to open the doors of opportunity to all of God's children"
This quote was important to the audience because in those times, not all of the people were able to do what ever they wanted. The African Americans weren't able to have a good job. To hang around White people. Or even use the washroom when ever they wanted. They were always the last at everything. This quote made them happy because now they are going to have the doors open, to do what ever they want. With out nobody telling them nothing. Everybody was going to be treated the same and have the same rights.
This quote was important to me because, because everybody should have the same rights. Everybody should have same opportunities to do anything they want to do. We are all God's children. It don't matter if we are different colors, different race, or different in anything. WE ARE ALL GOD'S CHILDREN!!!!!!!
A Dream Deferred
by Langston Hughes
What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore-- And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over-- like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?
What happens to a undocumented immigrant?
Does it worry a lot about what will happen to him or her everyday
like getting arrested?
Or getting separated
like not seeing your family for a long time.
Does it scare you
like a dog chasing you?
Or do you complete your American Dream
like any other family?
Maybe it is something that is in my head.
Like something you worry about.
or does it make sense?
My poem is about how I wonder, what the immigrants feel like, most of the time they are probably scared... But i still wonder.

Hey. Well its true that Africans during the Civil Rights Movement they were last or least important of things. How can a country filled with a religious spirit treat the poeple of GOD, their brothers and sisters different. Weren't we put on this earth equally, no on being higher or better than the rest? Would people tell Jesus to sit in the back of the bus? He couldn't have the same education as the rich or even have the same rights as those in America? People think it ok to pick on those who have no one to defend them, but a time will come when everyone tired of being stomped and take the government over and make it complete the promises it made to its people.

That was something horrible that they didn't get to sit beside a white person. I agree that we are all God's children. So everyone should be treated the same. I really like ur poem. U did a great job. comment mine!!
If Im correct it says also in the bible that everyone is equal. We are all gods children. So like every little brother and sister we compeat for evrything. This makes us lose our morals and ideals.
