Freedom Blog

I chose this image beacuse it says a lot about how the people felt about civil rights during this time. The image shows both black and white men and woman marching for equality and freedom. Most people are holding up signs that display a specific quote or short message that does a good job of suming up the basics of what they want to say, and the reason for them marching. These marches were the peaceful ways to protest the inequality, and show that the people wanted a change. Freedom to me means the ability to run your own life and do what you want without specific restraints based on certain things such as race. Though there are many laws and rules that are made to restrain people from doing certain things, people are free to choose whether or not they want to follow them. No one has total freedom because there will always be things that are keeping everyone from attaining total freedom.
