If I could change the history of the world...


I would like to write about the persecution of African Americans in the United States by the members of Ku Klux Klan. There were numerous brutal acts of murder performed by those extremely racist degenerates. 






If I had the power to turn back time and change the history of the world, I would definitely help the African-Americans who have been persecuted for so many years. In the past, the actions of the Ku Klux Klan did an enormous load of evil to those innocent people, fighting to have the “alleged” inalienable right to live. I would create some kind of board of politicians (not excluding African-American ones), who would present the problem objectively to the federal government so that they had a clear picture of what had been going on and how cruelly many lives had been taken. Those elected politicians’ task would be to fight for human rights of the racial minority and create them decent living conditions, in a world where no black person would dread to go out late at night, go to the polls or have to give up their seat on a bus for a white person.  I would definitely support Martin Luther King and his struggle for creating a better life for all African Americans. Below you can watch the renowned speech by this American clergyman, which he delivered on August 28, 1963 at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C.


 


Helping those people would be an essential thing to do if I somehow managed to change the course of events over the years, because their desperate plight, although not so physically cruel as it used to be, seems to continue and appears in many areas of our lives.
