Change? we wish!

 Positive changes towards this group has not been at all. But negative yo say well yes we have Big negative changes. LGBT has been suffering death in the United States . More than 10 deaths has been done and threats have been said towards LGBT saying the following 


Te queremos ver muerto dentro de un contenedor de basura como el hijoputa seboso malnacido que eres”. Estas son algunas de las amenazas que se podían leer a través de la página web elplural.com, en los comentarios que alberga, y que iban dirigidas contra el periodista de Intereconomía TV Xavier Horcajo. Unas amenazas e insultos que se producen días después de que el programa de Telecinco La Noria dedicara gran parte de su “tertulia política” a atacar a Horcajo


    This is just a small insu lt that I found but tons of theses has been foun ovver the inernet. There is definetly more negative reactions tward the LGBT than positive. Obama our president said that he will make every thing possible to protect and make the killers pay whta they have done to the LGBT because deaths of any kind are not aceptible. I believe that these were awsome words tward all types of people not only   the LGBT but to all peolple in the United States. :))


obamas' speah on gay rights
comments to LGBT (negative)

sturggle XD

From the yearly parade that commemorated the anniversary of the Stonewall riots began a national grassroots movement. Today many countries around the world celebrate LGBT pride. The pride movement has furthered the cause of gay rights by lobbying politicians, registering voters and increasing visibility to educate on issues important to LGBT communities. LGBT pride advocates work for equal “rights and benefits” for LGBT people.Pride parades for the LGBT community (also known as gay pride parades, pride events and pride festivals) are events celebrating lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) culture. The events also at times serve as demonstrations for legal rights such as same-sex marriage. Most pride events occur annually and many take place around June to commemorate the Stonewall riots, a pivotal moment in the modern LGBT rights movement. This has been a big struggle but its not over yet here are two videos that will make you think about what we humans do twards this people that are not different froms us !

why?

“Gay, lesbian and bisexual kids are being punished by police, courts and by school officials, and it’s not because they’re misbehaving more,” said Kathryn E. W. Himmelstein. 


And words like this make me think there is still discrimination for having a sex preference. Schools and legal systems are punishing GLBT's more than if they were strait. A study was mad and  researchers found that lesbian, gay and bisexual teenagers over all were far more likely to be stopped by the police, arrested or convicted of a crime than other adolescents. 




Politicians are braking the first amendment Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.They brake this by not having them express them selves as they want to . I believe they must change this and let people express themselves as they like its a free world and its never to late to speak up and show your true colors!

LGBT? o.O

     As we all know rights of all types are hard to get. Especially LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual & trans gernder) people. Some may say that its not important since am not LGBT but it really is a big issue. One of the first openly gay man elected for any subtational political office was a man named Harvey Milk. Milk defied the governing class of San Francisco in 1977 to become a member of its board of supervisors, many people straight and gay had to adjust to a new reality that a gay person could live an honest life and succeed. 



               The daughter of Bilitis  is the first lesbian rights organization in the United States. It was formed in San Francisco  in 1955, conceived as a social alternative to lesbian bars, which were considered illegal and thus subject to raids and police harassment. It lasted for fourteen years and became a tool of education for lesbians, gay men, researchers, and mental health professionals.


   In the 1960's this LGBT group started but it started first by part as in lesbians,gay then so on. in my opinion it is not a weak group because it even has a month to celebrate their rights.It celebrates its 6th year of progress. Feburary its the month for LGBT.


Fun fact:))

GLBT has its own musium the mussium shows all of their leaders and how it all sterted :). I would like to see it some day it look pretty fun

INDIANS?

 By the mid 1800's whites wanted to assimilate Native Americans. Indians had to move to reservation camps.
They also had to change their names into Christian names. Whites made those whom joined the reservation camps cut there hair so they could blend with the rest. Clothing was changed too. The struggle of most was to learn the English language witch would separate them from their original culture.




   Charles Eastman is a great example for all these ways. He was a young Indian boy who by the age of 15 was converted into a Christian. He had to change his original name Hakadah  to Charles Eastman. The reason for the change of name was to make it easier for the whites to remember his name. Soon after this a restoration was made and all Indians living in the camps had to change there names too.


 Indians had to cut their hair into shorter. Since we all know that Indians long hair represented masculineness they did suffer. Most Indians had there hair as long up to the hip. Charles Eastman was made to this to assimilate more   like the whites. This was a suffering and painful experience to most of them.


Indians had their own language but by living in these camps they had to some how communicate with whites. This was when their  language was changed into the English . This was harder for the Indians since most of them were already familiar with their own language. It was hard and challenging but accomplished.


In conclusion whites assimilated most of the Native Americans. They made them do things they didn't want to do  like change their names and ways of living. Most people may not realize this but whites made a whole new person by making this changes because they were not themselves they were what whites wanted them to be.
