Judging


        

               History is our only connection to the past and throughout time it has helped us understand how the world became to be what it is today. It taught us all about slavery in the United States, how your place in society was measured by the color of your skin and nothing else. However, this discrimination continued long after the fight for equality. Still today we are able to witnessed racism in some regions of the world. Nevertheless, it is important to mention that racism is not the only form of discrimination known to men.  Back then people began to measure a person's class judging by their accent. Forcing Black schools to teach proper white English to all of the children in order for them to have more job opportunists, as they grew older.


            On the other hand it is very interesting how white families would allow there daughter to grow up speaking exactly like black woman. Even though they interpreted this as being form an inferior class. Which leads me to question how somebodies importance in society could be measure judging by how they spoke? It is vital to end with all of this madness once in for all. Because the way you speak doesn't identify who you are or what you are good for. We say we live in a fair world, but do we really?
