| Citizen Join Date: May 2007 Location: Detroit Michigan Gender:  Posts: 127 Country:  Level up: 87%, 13 Points needed | | Personally, I have been involved with different types of
movements. Including Affirmative Action,Against the
latest 4 Conflicts & Wars (From Viet Nam to Iraq) held
in Washington D.C, and in Lansing my state's capital.
I have traveled around the global with Human Rights
organizations & groups, and have been involved with
both Million Men marchs. Most marchs isn't always
about if they worked or not, but its about making a
point, and I do believe that the message is delivered.
I have been to protests and rallies where they have
become racial battlegrounds, due to the fact that
one side did not agree with the otherside, and if
they wasn't racist they was all about political issues.
To Rallie or Protest is a rights to voice an opinion on
a subject matter regardless to if the message was
taken or not. At least there was an attempted to get
the message across. The problem of America is most
of us do not get involved with rallie or marchs unless
we (personally) benefit from the march or rallie.
I am going to Washington next month to join others
from around the nation for Safe Environmental Water
use, and Human Rights Against High Water rates.
Some Rallies & Marchs should take place in order to
let people know that we have rights, and again its
a chance to show concern. |
