Hey, I am Anouk Schochle and today we learn something about Power, Protest and Change in the history
Zickzack Road
It was a really long way for rights for POCs. And there were a lot of ups and downs, back and forth: like a zickzack road.
A lot of people suffered for their rights
What to the slave
The 4th of July wasn't always a day to celebrate for everyone. During some people celebrate their country, others were slaves in the same country. Douglas talked in a speech
Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address
Protest needed pain and a lot of people suffered for their rights.
Brown vs. Board of Education
Separate but equal
Protests with a speech, the people got the opportunity to talk about their problems.
The Social Dilemma
In his speech Lincoln talked about how the people need to stand together, doesn't matter what skin colour they have.
Also people which weren't directly affected by the problem (here slavery) helped the affected people.
He wanted to rebuilt America and make it better for all. He wanted to end the slavery. He brought a lot of change to the people
People used the complaints to fight for their rights. They had the opportunity to use a legal way.
That doesn't work. After this case schools weren't separate anymore and finally all kids can learn together.
With technology and social media a lot of things changed, the way to protest changed. Now people can protest and talk about their opinions in the internet.
Phones separates the people more and more. Our live is online now. We protest with social media and use different ways to present our opinion.
