An organization was formed to boycott the buses and Dr. Martian Luther king was asked to be president of it. In his first, and in my opinion, most powerful speeches Dr. Martian Luther King stated “First and foremost we are American citizens...We are not here advocating violence...the only weapon that we have...is that of protest...The great glory of American democracy is the right to protest for right.” Dr. King and the organization succeeded. The Supreme Court ordered the c ...

Being more emotional and constantly needing advice, a girl’s relationship with her best friend is one of vital importance to her. It is a known fact that women live longer and deal with stress better due to talking about their problems rather than acting impulsively like men. Bonds with a girl’s confidant are very strong and are hardly breakable. Honestly, a boy’s relationship with his cronies mystifies me. I believe they have the same relationship as girls do, but with less emotional, in-depth discussions. Males experie ...

... demands obedience to one‘s ethnic group. The purpose of a university is not to be a representative of society but to help develop knowledge and reason. How can multiculturalists say that this is fair to society? A just society is a society that lets one determine his or her beliefs and doesn‘t try to influence them one way or another. Society by definition means people as a whole not as individual groups. “As more and more people begin to regard loyalty to group as more important than loyalty to country, we get a chilling preview of what the United States might be like if each of us maintains our own culture, if we reject mainstreaming and assimilation, and i ...
