Here is a change of words, I was sitting in Afro-American history today. Talking about the rights of this group of people and that group of people. We learned that blacks had the right to marry, but got no rights that came along with it.
We learned that whites thought that they had all the rights. The right to control the blacks, own them, tell them how to live and act. We learned that whites could sentence the blacks to death if they hit a white man.
We have talked about women's roles at this time. It makes me wonder if women were and are enough? Let's think about this we produce children for men, son's that carry on there names, daughters that will go out and make grandchildren. It's proven that women are being payed less, some men think less of us because of what we are. And we are treated so differently. We don't get the same respect, or jobs. Look at the military, there are jobs that women are barred from doing. How is that fair? I don't feel like men should be the only one's who can be drafted, when Susan B. Anthony and her group marched up and down the streets they asked for all the same rights, not some.....all.
And gays. They can get married in some states but the minute you cross out of those boarders you lose your "marriage." How is that fair? How can you do that to someone? What do you care? Why is it that religion is a no no in public UNLESS someone doesn't like something. That's when you start following what religion says.
I got a call from student services today.....I'm a little worried about what they want. I know it's probably nothing serious. I'm going to call tomorrow and see what's going on.
