The issue is that there is nobody to<br />

witness the problems occurring. <br />

Our society is divided among its<br />

classes where one class does not care<br />

about the other and does not want to<br />

be involved in the benefit of others. <br />

There are certain allies involved. Those<br />

groups are composed of upper white<br />

class folk and usually provide their<br />

assistance out of pity. <br />

When a white person helps a black<br />

person, the white person becomes a<br />

hero for what they did. However, the<br />

same is not true if a black person<br />

helped a white person.<br />

We can not just stand around and watch<br />

this occurring. It is our duty to make our<br />

society a more just place for all races,<br />

cultures, and individuals. The studies have<br />

proven countless times that education is the<br />

key to lower crime and lower poverty rates. <br />

I have seen this issue occur on a first hand<br />

basis. My elementary years were spent in a<br />

minority neighborhood with constant<br />

government cuts towards public education<br />

funding. The only result was more violent<br />

and less educated individuals. <br />

Some allies have joined into avoiding this<br />

issue. However we must show them that we<br />

can unite to. We need to work together into<br />

making a more just society for a better<br />

tomorrow.<br />
