Gratitude for Brown vs. Board of Education :: Race Segregation

What is it to ME I was born in 1985 and I grew up with two younger brothers. Now when I look back on my life I realize that I confound taken many things for granted. These things are the honest things that most people take for granted such as maturement up in a good neighborhood, and not having to worry more or less gangs, violence, and drugs. Like most kids growing up in good areas I went to a good school that helped springboard my life. These blessing are what allowed me to look at into this University. Every once in awhile I view or think of something that reminds me of how lucky I am. At this University I had one of these moments and it happened at an art museum. This museum had an unwrap on Brown v. The Board of Education. This exhibit is where I really came to appreciate what I was blessed with because of others before my time and what they nurse allowed me to do with it. The Brown v. Board of Education exhibit size was tolerable from my view b ut I have not been to an art exhibit for exceptionally long time. The thing that caught my eye the most was a word-painting playing on a wall. This video had the dissemble split trim down the middle with two separate videos playing. On one side of the screen there was what seemed to be old video footage of a light family and so on the other side old video footage of a ignominious family. These videos seemed to try to show that black and white life was the same during this time. The footage seemed to be taken in the sixties or seventies, based on the clothe worn in the footage, and this puzzled me due to the fact that black and white life was not equal at this time. It showed both families going to Disney domain of a function and their family get-in concerts. The black family did seem to have more people over for the family together and much more food which just reminded me of my own family get-togethers, which I have to say are a blast. The whole film gave off an nimbus clo ud that the film had been contrived.
