Question

Write a paragraph argument in which you make a claim about whether Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s version of the American Dream has been achieved. Is there equality between groups? Use reasons and evidence to support your claim.

Answer 1

Negatives

- 88% of blacks and other ethnic groups believe there has to be something done about racism in 2018

-in the workplace since 1970, black men have always gotten 60-70% less pay than white men. 

-in 2009 police brutality deaths ranged from 397-426. That number jumped to 461 in 2013. However, federal experts believe that the estimates are to low.

Positives

I can't find anything other than that blacks and whites no longer have separate water fountains, washrooms, schools, living areas etc. 

Hope this helps dude :)

Answer 2

Answer:

Dr. King's dream of equality has not been achieved in education. There is still a difference between the number of African Americans who receive high school diplomas and the number of whites who do. According to the US Census Bureau, in 2000, only 72 percent of African Americans had diplomas while about 83 percent of whites did. Even though some might say the difference between the two groups is not as big as it was in the 1960s, there is still a difference. Closer is not the same as equal. Because the groups do not have equal percentages, King's dream of equality has not actually been achieved.
