Henry B on 10 Feb 14Martin Luther King was in Memphis, when he was assassinated. The racial discrimination in the city killed Martin Luther King. The whites didn't like him and beat him and arrested him and tortured him. When he was at this motel, he was killed due to the racial discrimination in Memphis.

Henry B on 10 Feb 14I thought this was interesting because it shows the racism in Memphis. This problem can get bigger and bigger if it is allowed. This crime was done because Martin Luther King was black. This is a big part in racial discrimination.
-
Sam B on 12 Feb 14"and beat him and arrested him and tortured him" is a run-on sentence. The crime was not done just because he was black. The attack was done because he was supporting blacks. Also you need to list this under history.

Hewes S on 19 Feb 14I think this is to long ago and it won't really give lots of information about today society.
-
Blake S on 19 Feb 14I argue with Hewes because it was formal and gave recent information ABOUT THIS TOPIC.
-
Sam B on 19 Feb 14Although this article gives specific information about Memphis' history, the information is not recent nor important for today's situation.
-
Griffin R on 19 Feb 14I agree with Hewes, It was a long time ago. You need to find a website with recent info.
-
Jim K on 19 Feb 14Memphis is a big city for civil rights in America, but I think you could find something that relates to today, and effects our society.

Robert D on 19 Feb 14Are there any facts backing theses conspires, and what causes them to be so compelling?
-
Caleb B on 19 Feb 14This is not important because it is to old for our question.
-
Jack F on 19 Feb 14While this does go over the racial discrimination I think this more one sided and is only about Dr. Martian Luther King.
-
Seth R on 19 Feb 14How does this relate to us reducing racism in our community ? I like how you used facts to back up the problem. I don't think that this doesn't really relate to us reducing racism. I suggest that you find an article that does realet to our issue.
-
Samuel K on 19 Feb 14This is a good topic and I think that it will help in our group discussion, but I think that you need something more recent.
-
Devin M on 19 Feb 14Why is this important today if it happened in 1968?I like the historical reference.I'm concerned with it's outdated info. I suggest you find something more current.
-
Ben S on 19 Feb 14Although this happened many years ago, I think this article can help us in this proses of how we can reduce racism in our community.
-
Sam B on 19 Feb 14This may be a little one-sided. The passage talks about the outrage and distress after King's death, but not the feelings of racist people in the country.

Jimmy T. on 19 Feb 14I do not think this is biased. However, I would question whether or not it is relevant to what we are studying. Your question was, "Where/how do we address the problem and change things?". The upcoming days of Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination aren't relevant to that question.
