We do not live in a perfect world. There are a lot of things that I wish my children didn't have to see but I am very thankful that my children did not have to witness the Civil Rights Movement. This is especially true because we live in Alabama. I can't imagine growing up in this state during that time and witnessing the horrible things that happened. I am thankful for people like Martin Luther King, Jr. who fought so that everyone could have the same freedoms. Sure, there are still problems in this country but we are all better people because of him.
