Timelines

Some similarities between the timelines were that we all used to same information. We all took the readings that Cass gave to us and pick out what we thought was important. The difference is through us all using the same information we used it differently. Groups used what they got from those readings toward their theme, other groups used what they got from the readings and they explained and pu more effort and energy into it. Also a difference was that we used the same readings to make different themes. We all shared some similar points but in the end had different themes and ideas for those points. I already knew when Obama became president, and that a Hispanic became a supreme Court Judge. I also knew that all races went through hardship and hard times to get where they are now. I also know that through those struggles that most races had to go through white people did not. Most white people had it easy, and had to go through no struggle to do anything. What I did not know was how hard and how mysterious, and under the radar white people drive to keep their race on top, to keep anyone esle from getting close or ahead of them. I learned that everyone coming or wanting to come to America paid a price wether it was blood or deaths of their race, people from all places when coming to America they all paid a price. Instead of us coming together and try to out crown the whites we are at war with everyone who has things in common. Also I learned and witnessed  what Cass was saying about thoughts and understanding. What Cass did we he gave us am the same  readings and I'm those reading it was all the same, he gave it to us to decide what was important and what was a common theme. I learned that everyone's understanding and thoughts on things are very different. We can all be exposed and taught something is the way it is but some people will still ask questions about it. This brings up the question of who controls our daily lives, what race does not struggle. For me the answers to these questions are the same that white people are the controllers behide every race that white people will for the most part get away with whatever they do and when a black person does it it's wrong.  White people the the history books never struggled. They never struggled like minorities and non popular groups in this society have to struggle today. My question to you is why do we let them treat us this way?
