A momentous victory of the African American populist, as they can now vote without any barriers. But why did this happen? And why is it important to you? Before the act, African Americans, especially in the Southern United States, could not vote without problems with the local whites. Though they was constitutionally allowed to vote, the governor's found ways to bypass the constitution. After the Civil War, the Black Codes was made to limit or simply prevent African Americans from voting. These code prevent blacks from voting by imposing a literacy test or a poll tax, which most blacks could not pass one or the other. And with the KKK, intimidation, murder, and arson was only some of the ways they suppressor blacks rights. But the African Americans had enough of this and soon protested against these injustices. This was only one of the propellants of the civil right movement. After heavy protest, the current president, Lyndon B. Johnson, signed the Voting Act of 1965, in 1965. This law made it illegal to impose voting taxes, literacy tests, and intimidation during elections, local, states and federal levels. So why is it important to you? Image if you could not vote due to a $100 dollar fine, or if the test ask you to define parallel dimensions. Not fair right? And this law not only applies to blacks, but to anyone of all color or background. This law gave the African American community a major victory over discrimination and injustice that was

    Trump has issued new executive orders that have shocked not only Americans, but also people from all over the world. Basically what these orders are to do is that they are intended to ban Muslims from seven countries from entering the United States. Even those who have been living in America for quite a while are to be deported to their countries. What is more devastating is that students who had their student visas from their home countries to come study in the USA are no more welcomed here and have to face these new abnormal orders. I think the new executive order is definitely intended to discriminate against Muslims because there were no terrorist attacks performed from people who are from these 7 countries in the U.S.…

    This was a great thing and allowed African Americans to exercise their rights. On the other hand, the South did not want the African Americans to use their rights, so they found a legal way to prevent the African Americans from using their rights by creating literacy tests and poll taxes. Poll taxes required individuals to pay a tax before they could vote, and if they could vote they had to take a literacy test, which tests that African Americans were forced to take before they could vote. For example, the Texas Poll Tax had an extremely large amount of money for people to pay, but on this receipt, it was 76 dollars, which is equivalent to around 700 dollars today. This was outrageous because African Americans had just gotten out of slavery and they didn’t make income, so paying that poll tax just to vote wasn’t an option for them.…

    Moderate news outlets are more likely to not discuss scripture, and if they do, it is usually referring to how a certain terrorist interpreted the scripture for themselves. However, verses from the Bible or other holy books are not mentioned in the media as much as Islamic scripture when justifying terrorism. Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer, an associate professor at the University of St. Thomas, found that violence is prevalent and justified many times throughout Abrahamic religious texts. He theorized that the similar presence of a “Deity who uses unfathomable violence to both reward and punish" may explain why Muslim, Christian, and Jewish extremists interpret texts more violently. Pallmeyer further points out an ironic fact that the public and media…
