Victoria Durden in response to Savannah Bryant

It is an interesting point to examine and compare civil rights today versus civil rights in the time of Malcom X. Not only for African Americans but for all minority groups. I feel like our country has made considerable progress and as an avid traveler, I believe our country has overcome much more than many others in moving towards equality. Traveling has given me perspective on how open America truly is, compared to the views of the rest of the world. I wonder what Malcom X would think of today's civil rights situation, and if he would think that any of his goals for the American black man have been realized. I mean hey, our president is indeed black.
