A report was produced called “To Secure These Rights” which underlined the problems that African Americans faced during this period. It said that the USA could not claim to lead the free world if Blacks were not equal. This proved that the Federal Government did play a part in changing the status for Black Americans as a previously racist President was motivated to change the way Blacks were treated which was a big step towards social equality. Moreover, in 1948, Truman ended segregation in the armed forces by signing the Executive Order 9981 which guarantied equality and opportunity for all persons ion the armed forces
The minorities in both movements could no longer live in an oppressed state and their only option was to rebel against the majority. Using Dr. King’s Letter from Birmingham jail, the ideas of power, law and morality arise in social, political and economic movements. As the Civil Rights movement was successful in its pursuit, it will take more time to observe any lasting effects from the Occupy movement. [Having witnessed segregation, I can’t agree with your comparison, but you’re of course entitled to your opinion. When you expand your oppressed minority to 99%, you are including a lot of very well off

Bill Howell – Cohort 807 Stennis Space Center, MS Essay #2 GE3109 The case of the “The Reluctant Security Guard” has failures on two main fronts. There is a clear conflict between the company’s policy and David’s security license requirements. David Tuff’s handling of the issue should have been documented via a formal complaint, which would have possibly supported future efforts on his part to bring such a blatant policy of disregard for the public’s safety to the conscience of the media and public. Concurrently, it would validate his interaction with the company in regards to this matter in that he pursued dialogue to review and rescind the policy to include the challenge this policy poses to following the procedures and guidance outlined in the security manual and the risk to him and possibly others. It would also buttress any claims he may make under the “Whistle Blowers Act.” In regards to The Blue Mountain Company’s policy on removing intoxicated or drug induced individuals to the periphery of their property, it demonstrated a selfish disregard for public safety.

The idea of a march was first conceived in 1941, when Randolph threatened President Franklin D. Roosevelt to assemble 100,000 African Americans in the capital, if he refused to sign an executive order banning discrimination in the defense industries and creating the Fair Employment Committee. Randolph’s idea sparked up again more than 20 years later. His main focus for the march was the same as the previous marches. He along with others demanded equality in the job industries and education. In a December 1962 meeting, Randolph and Bayard Dustin began to plan the March on Washington.
On August 2, 2011, the United States will reach its dept ceiling of 14.292 trillion dollars. This means that legally the US government cannot spend another dime without a vote to raise the limit for the 75th time since 1962. If the national debt ceiling is not raised by the August deadline, the US Government would either have to default on some of its debt or reduce spending by 40 percent which would adversely affect Social Security and other entitlement payments. The dept ceiling has to be raised to with a compromised plan of the gang of six. If the Dept ceiling is not raised we are facing the United States having a bad credit reputation with other countries, risk a government shut down, and there would be panic by many Americans.
It seems that each year, Congress or our senior military leaders want to place additional constraints on this healthcare system. Some of these constraints help the system while others adversely affect our retirees and their dependents. Some examples of these adverse constraints are higher deductibles, higher catastrophic limits, and higher annual premiums. The reform of the current military healthcare system is proposed for FY2015. The current limits are $300 for the deductible, which under the new proposal will increase to $600 (Bushatz, 2014).
