Self Choice

Unjustice has existed since the begining of human kind and will continue to affect us. It is true some people are given a better education by the goverment but it does not go to say those people deserve it. Life won't always give us the greatest opportunities but what you make of what you have shows who you will become. If you sit there and complain about the school that you go to rather than decide to make a change, then you are condemning yourself. Race does not determine your intelligence, desire, or success but you do.

I agree, I believe that it takes self determination to be successful, no matter where your from. It is your own choice to succeed and accomplish great things.

What about in "Still Seperate, Still Unequal," when the little girl is upset about taking a hairdressing class because she wants to take an AP class? Is she not determined because there is nothing she can do about it? Her parents probably can not cover the costs to pay for the AP test. Is it her parents fault that they can not afford it? Some people want to be succesful and but some can not afford it.
It takes money to make money. Not everyone can go to good schools because not everyone has the opportunities.
