The strength to make a change

I think the A&T Four had the strength and privilege to make a change and that’s exactly what they did. They saw something wrong in the world and used the power given to them to change what they thought was unethical. They were persistent. They knew that it wasn’t going to happen right away but they didn’t give up no matter the challenges. I myself as a young person have similar privileges. If I see something in the world that doesn’t seem right it me I have the ability to speak out and say that I don’t like it and be able to try and make a change. I think I lack the confidence that they had. If I was there I would probably be too scared to protest with them. I want to change the racial in justice and societal standards of black young adults as myself.
