Would you have been able to use civil disobedience and nonviolence

I would use civil disobedience because i cannot stand there and be disrespected like some people were. I would make some sort of a mark that that would get my voice across. I would also not be able to sit there and not have all the freedoms that i feel i deserve.

MLK Dream has been realized?

Income for African Americans has improved greatly. Blacks now get an equal shot at jobs and they are paid just the same. There is also no idea of last hired first fired. That is completely not the case anymore. Blacks get a fair shot at any job and that is a great improvement from past times.A negative that i find with income is although they are getting a significantly bigger income they are still at the bottom in terms of income. They are also not even close to catching whites who are at 45,000 to there 29,000.This is a weakness that i think is a shame and needs to be fixed.My suggestions that i have for fixing this problem is don't be afraid to make a difference and be the man that gives an African American a bigger paycheck than other bosses. The reason i say that is people will start to see that other bosses are making a move at this and they hopefully would follow along in the same way.
