 * __Historical Event

BROWN VS. BOARD OF EDUCATION__** This case happens to be one of the most influential cases of all time. It started with the parents of a large family sued the board of education on the charge of racial segregation. In all actuality the case was compromised of five separate cases, with the case in Topeka Kansas reigning on top. The reason this case happened to be dominant was because Topeka had some of the least segregated schools, showing that even the best of places were horrible to the African American. The case took much time for the supreme court to do its final ruling but had great affects for the African American population for it started in 1951. By 1953 most if not all elementary had been integrated with all races, putting an end to much of the problem of different value schools and education.

This case was much more than a fight against segregation, it was a fight for their national rights. it was the turning points for some, and a majestic case which will forever be in the minds of the citizens of the United Sates of America. It is an event that lands right on top with the greatest African American hero of all time, Martin Luther King Jr.

__**Resent Event

Ku Klux Klan**__ The Ku Klux Klan still reigns terror to this very day. //"In a July 2005 incident, a Hispanic man's house was burned down in Hamilton, Ohio, after accusations that he sexually assaulted a nine-year-old white girl. Klan members in Klan robes showed up afterward to distribute pamphlets. In May 2006, a Ku Klux Klan group led an anti-immigration march in Russellville, Alabama."//

As I previously stated the KKK a racist religion, if i do say so myself has not just stopped with African Americans but Hispanics as well. Is there anything they don't stop at, even though he was accused of sexually assaulting a nine year old girl, was there any proof, or was he even found guilty. racism is still alive and strong even after great hero's like Dr. King, President Lincoln and Malcolm X, gave their life on the foundation of racial equality. yet the KK still thinks as the white race to be superior to all others, for example why are they better? Is it because they are smarter... I wouldn't thinks so, since Asians happen to score better on average than all others.

I believe that by hiding their insecurities they attack and destroy others dreams and hopes. Something that can be a lot worse than physical damage, since emotional damage may never heal.
