    In Nashville people are supposed to stand, speak, act. Tennessee has a Anti-Racist Network. The Tennessee Anti-Racist Network urges Tennesseans who disagree with their elected officials speaking at a racist convention.

    This article is about Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream and how it has affected America so far (like Obama) and how we need to pursue his dream.

    I think that a speech at a famous landmark in Memphis would be the best way to get the word out. I'm piggybacking off of Martin Luther King Jr.

    I think that this website could help in our group discussion, and I like how you used history and this can help us find out what people have done in the past to fix the problem.

    I think that this will help our project because I might lead us to something different.

    I feel like there is a little more information to be used in this paragraph, I feel like it was formal though. I suggest using a little more recent site.

    I personally think that this is full of information that is good, but is more of an opinion.

    A good link showing how our country has decided to embrace change in our presidential decisions on who to lead the country. Soon we will probably have many different races and even genders of people as leaders of the country.

    I think you also need some more background in this. There just isn't enough information in what you said to be sure of the real problem. Where is the problem? All you are saying is we need to pursue Obama's dream. No problem is stated.
  • Seth R on 19 Feb 14
     
    Are you saying that we need to bring back Martin's idea? Yes. I am. I like how you had the idea of using something that has already happened and worked to spread the word about racism. This is a reliable link because it is from a University, but this seems to have very many opinions in it.

    It is great what Martin Luther King has done to unify us. I wouldn't have some of my friends today if it weren't for him. I try to live by: Judge a man by his actions; not the color of his skin. I think it would be great to make a celebration for him. I think the article was good, I just think you could find a deeper one.

    Is this link valuable? Sure it compares Lincoln to king and king to Obama, but that is not affecting our community.
  • Jerry P on 19 Feb 14
     
    I like how it asks questions and then answers them in detail. I also like how it compares old racism to new racism.

    This article is great talking about how the "I have a Dream" speech has brote this country together.
  • Devin M on 19 Feb 14
     
    Why is this important now? This is important because of its history and heritage. What drove MLK to give this speech. We should consider following MLK's ways of leadership and awareness.
  • Jimmy T. on 19 Feb 14
     
    I don't think that this is biased. However, I don't think it's very valuable either; it's an interview with someone who wrote a book that connects Abraham Lincoln to Obama to Martin Luther King Jr.
  • Sam B on 19 Feb 14
     
    This page is quite one-sided. The side supporting Martin Luther King's speech. The answers to these questions are said by one man rather than a group or groups of people. Imagine what a somewhat racist person would say to some of these questions.
  • Graham W on 19 Feb 14
     
    I think we need to focus more on what his dream could have done to racial discrimination more that just look at it and say, " Man that is a great dream."

Three more thugs arrested for racially motivated mob attacks in Warner Robbins, GA - 2 views

  • If the races had been reversed, this would be a major national news story. There is absolutely no doubt that national media would be in a frenzy right now. About thirty black teenagers, in Warner Robins, Georgia, celebrated a snow day by rioting and committing racially motivated hate crime mob attack. Five white adults were brutally attacked by the mob. One of the victims was a woman who had an infant baby with her. The thugs posted the this photo (right) on the internet to gloat about the attacks. The thugs screamed racial slurs during the assaults. The total number of arrests has increased to five. Since the perps are all juveniles, there will be very little repercussions for their actions. From Macon Telegraph… Three more teens were arrested Friday for their alleged involvement in an attack at Warner Robins High School last week when the school was closed for snow. D’Angelo Montell Roquemore, 17, of Warner Robins, has been charged with aggravated assault in the Jan. 29 brawl, according to a police news release. In addition, a 15-year-old boy from Warner Robins and a 14-year-old boy from Warner Robins were each charged with aggravated assault, the release states. Police did not release the boys’ names because they are juveniles. Two teens already were arrested in the incident, bringing the total number of arrests to five. Shymalik Raekwon Mitchell, 17, of Warner Robins, was arrested Wednesday an

      Something not fair is how if this were the other way around, this would be very major. It seems like media today is still racist.... just now to white people

      It's a good topic but this does not apply to racism in Memphis.

    3 black thugs called a white awful racial slurs, and brutally beat him.

    In the article I feel like it is one sided. We didn't here from the black point of view, what if the 5 white people threatened them? I feel like you need to add to the tags. For example, assault. Also, you highlighted almost all of it and Mr. Cummings said not to. Also, Georgia isn't in our community. We need to find the other side of the story, like what caused the black kids to kill them. What were the white people doing to provoke the blacks to kill them?
  • Graham W on 19 Feb 14
     
    I agree with Sam it really doesn't apply to Memphis because every night on Action News 5 you always see that someone either kidnapped someone or murdered someone. It is also black people and white people. So it wouldn't really be a big deal if a white guy murdered someone randomly. This happens every day in Memphis either a murder, abuse, or kidnapping, its not a big deal white or black.

    The "N word has been used all around Memphis. I have had some experience. I have been down to a soup kitchen in downtown Memphis and I heard a white worker say the "N word." I feel like it is a real problem that spreads around Tennessee and the Nation.

    I feel like this was part of an opinion but it was a good source.

    You need a link besides sweet search. I think you got your link wrong.
