I Dream A World

I dream a world where man
No other man will scorn,
Where love will bless the earth
And peace its paths adorn
I dream a world where all
Will know sweet freedom's way,
Where greed no longer saps the soul
Nor avarice blights our day.
A world I dream where black or white,
Whatever race you be,
Will share the bounties of the earth
And every man is free,
Where wretchedness will hang its head
And joy, like a pearl,
Attends the needs of all mankind-
Of such I dream, my world!
     I think this poem has a few different meanings. Langston Hughes wanted the world to be a place where there are no race issues. Where people are not slaves and have to suffer. Everybody will know what freedom is. Where love is all around and everybody cares for everyone. The world is full of peace where there are no wars or big problems. A place where people are not greedy. People are not always worried about money. Where people are not so materialistic. Not always worried about tryinr to have better things then other people. A place where people can lend a helping hand and not want something back in return. People would be thankful of what they have and not want what other people have. You should always be proud of yourself and what your doing. Everything that you have done all the things you have accomplished.
     Sure we all want world peace. A place where everybody gets along. Where there are no fighting and wars.But its a small possibiliy that it will happen. Not everyone cares if we have world peace. They just care about there lifes and thats it. A lot of the people dont care about the big problems. I think if more people cared about the problems it would help. If more people helped to try and solve problems they wouldnt be so big.

Race In America

    "Let us all hope that the dark clouds of racial prejudice will soon pass away, and that in some not too distant tomorrow the radiant stars of love and brotherhood will shine over our great nation with all their scintillating beauty (Martin Luther King Jr.)." There is a lot of racism in the world now then ever before. Even more now then when Hitler was around. Like the burning of the Quran or the new Islamic Mosque that’s wanted to be built.
     I think that they shouldn't build the Mosque that close to the 9/11 memorial. Not just because their Muslims but just out of respect. I also don’t think they should have tried building it around the time of the anniversary. In a way I think some people blew it out of proportion. Just because Muslims are the ones who crashed into the buildings. That doesn't mean that all Muslim people are bad but that’s what we think. But because that’s the way we were taught. That if one person does something wrong then everybody is bad.

    Thursday Pastor Terry Jones called off the burning of the Korans. He had wanted to show that the Islamics are very dangerous. All because of few of them burned down the twin towers. Which I think not all of them are bad.

    There are some people that agree that its okay to burn the Koran. Saying that if its okay to burn the flag then why cant they burn the Koran. Burning the Koran is like building the mosque. You know you have the right to. But is it he proper and good thing to do. I think burning the book is un American.

     The burning of the Koran is not right. Pastor Terry Jones is making things worse then they need to be. By have the burning of the Koran day that makes all of us look like bad people. President Obama is saying by burning the books we are putting our troops in danger. They are afraid that there people are going to start to hate us even more. By hating us more their going to start more trouble. They think there going to want to kill our soldiers more. When they already want to kill them. I don’t think its putting them in that much danger. They are already in danger by just being there.
