Modern day activism

Modern day activism is different than Douglas time period of activism because today’s era blacks and whites can riot together, learn together, and wed. In Frederick Douglas era none of those things would have happened. Blacks were not allowed to read, write, or mingle with whites. Yes, they had their rights but not like today. Movements back then had a great cause to them or meaning that they stood for. Todays movements are over anything and everything. Today’s movements is not for the whole people or class, it is so that people can have a voice over nonsense and say they are talking. Movements back in Douglas time had meanings to them, for instance, Joining of blacks and whites in school. Now a days people do movements and others are allowed to yell ridiculous things. Our movements are not as powerful as those that created pathways for us today. I think Mr. Frederick Douglas would think we are crazy for having so may rights and wanting still much more because we are not satisfied.
