I totally agree with Malcolm X’s statement about the connection between peace and freedom. No country can fully enjoy peace, even if it does not wage war with any external enemies, in a situation when some of its own citizens are not fully free. In such cases there will always be a fight and unrest.

I’m not convinced that what Malcolm X said is entirely true. Knowing his attitude – which was the approval of the use of force if need be – towards integration and assimilation of people of different origins, no peace can ever be achieved. On the other hand, can you say you are truly free if you are expected to mingle only with your own kind in order to maintain your identity? I have doubts.

Hello Betsy,

Hope you’re fine. I have recently watched a very interesting documentary about the civil rights movement in the US and I’m writing to tell you a bit about what I’ve found out.

The events such as the Montgomery Bus Boycott or the March on Washington took place in the 1950s and 1960s, and they caused changes in the law and some people’s thinking.

It was the mid‑20th century, but black people were still discriminated against in many public places. They were also refused services which the US constitution granted them. Acts of violence against them were widespread too.

The main names connected with the movement are Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King. Rosa Parks’ defiance resulted in segregation on buses being declared unconstitutional. Martin Luther King will be remembered as a peaceful activist who had a dream of equality between black and white American citizens.

I am shocked that this fight took place not so long ago but also I’m full of admiration for the courage of the activists who changed the world for the future generations.

What’s your opinion about the movement and its activists? Let me know what you think.

Take care,

XYZ
