The article I chose to read is about "Rebel Flag Fans Face Gang Charge for Crashing Black Kid's Party". A group of white men who support the confederate flag drove around one morning. The drove to a black child's birthday party near Atlanta. These people threatened the guests with violence and yelled racial epithets. These white have been charged with terrorist threats and gang activity. It was around mid day when this all happened.
This is ridiculous. It's a little kids party and they chose to ruin it. We are all equal. I don't know if there's a reason he did it on this specific party or not, but still. That little boy and his family did nothing to deserve this. Racial injustice occurs a lot in American history. An example of this is when the first black governor in the U.S. took office in Louisiana. This made a lot of people angry.

Yeah, I still don't understand why people choose to judge people based on the color of their skin. It makes absolutely no sense. Plus, why would you threaten a little kid at their birthday party. That is just sick to me.
ReplyDeleteWe are all human beings. It doesn't matter what skin color you are. We all have the right to vote so we are all equal.

ReplyDeleteI think it is terrible that this has happened. Racism is still alive in America.
We are all equal, I don't know why people feel they need to do these kinds of things. Especially to a little kid on their birthday.
