Civil rights comparison

I belive there a big connection between the civil rights movement in america and the freedom movement in egypt. They both along the same lines, not asking for much just looking for fairness in the government and better quality of life all together. They are fighting for freedom even though in america is was soley based on race in egypt factors include race, religion, and gender. They are using simmalar protesting methods some violent and some non violent but are both being abused and treated inhumanely. Egypts consititution (almost like the jim crow laws) states that muslim males are ideal citizens and you will have your basic rights. While if your a female and have any other religion you will be getting the short end of the stick in the dilema. If you think this isn't fair, you had little to no rights in america before 1964 if you were an african american or even from african american decent. The egyptian constitution strictly follows islamic law because Islam is reffered too as the states religion, thats why you can find it being so prejuduce against women and other religions. It contradicts itself often by stating that there is equality and freedom for all but still going back too "without abandoning the judgments of Islamic law". This is like when in the jim crow laws it says "seperate but equal". African Americans and Whites were seperated but they were not treated equal because in other laws African Americans were not even allowed to walk on main roads. With loop holes like the ones in the Egyptian Constitution the probability of seeing another civil rights up roar like the one we had is very high.

parenting

In the 20th century there is a lot more you need to worry about when raising your child. Everyday there are circumstances that will corrupt your kids morals or put them in harms way. Atticus is a great parent for his time period and it would carry over well into ours. He teaches his kids the right thing to do and stay out of trouble.Atticus would not tolerate foolishness and always helped his kids do what he told them to do. My parents used religion as a big factor in how me and my two sisters were raised. As a kid learning right and wrong was solely based off “what would jesus do” and the ten commandments. My parents kept me in private school until late middle school and i was not really exposed to how bad the world could be. When i become a parent i am going to be very friendly and understanding but im still going to be strict. Im not going to tolerate my children doing the wrong thing and thinking its ok. The better my kids are the more descions they are going to make on there own but if i see they are making bad descions its my job as a parent to make those descions for them. The way i see things this way is because this is how my parents raised me and as many times as i wanted to say it was unfair it was perfectly fair if it was not for them i would not be here and i would not have food in my stomache or even a roof over my head. As long as they are providing for me its my job to do what they say especialy because they do not ask for that much. Kids i see not striving to be succesfull have a direct correlation to there parents and how they were raised. They more laid back a parent is the more the kids is going to slack off in school and in life overall. Its every kids dream to have a parent that would let them do whatever they want but if they had that they would not be doing anything good for themselves at all and be going no where in life.

Race Relations

America has come along way in the terms of racism. Todays problems are miniscule compared to our history's but these problems should still not be tolerated. Racism is unacceptable but there is a thin line between whats racist and whats not and its a contraversial issue if someone crossed it or not. The biggest problem with racism is stereotypes. People will not be treated the same way just because of the color of there skin because there "trouble makers" or "hoolagans" and they will be told they like fried chicken and kool aid. There are still racists klans or gangs that are very serious and scary then this. I find alot there is alot of messed up things in the world and racism being one of them but it is not a priority anymore. I'm not saying its not wrong but we got rid of the majority of it a while ago and its slowly fading away. I do not see alot of serious racism, I do see it on a smaller lever though, with name calling and gossip which is still very wrong. An example of this would be if someone is using slang and acting ghetto people will call that acting or thinking your "black". Kids do not find this offensive but I would not be suprised if an older african american would get offended hearing this, it is something that should not be said. To wrap it up racism is a decreasing problem in our nation but it still needs to be recognized. Everyone is equal and there should be no need to judge a person just because of the color of there skin
