Freedom summer!
So, I don’t know too mch about the legacy of what freedom summer played here at Miami but I have been interested. I have walked around and seen the monuments everywhere. I have heard rumors but I have never known the facts. I’m excited to go on the tour Monday and to hear the story from someone who knows. As I was watching the videos for class I ran across the “I have a dream” speech by Martin Luther King Jr. I watched the video and it reminded me of elementary school when we first learned about those people. Rosa Parks, Martin King, and Malcom X were all figures who we learned about. It makes me wonder how I would have reacted back int hat time. It makes me wonder if I would have been the people hurt the negros… At the same time, it makes me glad that i wasn’t around back then. That way I don’t have tpo worry about that question anymore.
