ABS 417 Week 2 Assignment Reflection Paper

Every little change count and this is what I have learned after watching this video. A few people that are committed are better than having thousands of people that doesn’t care about anything. This is like having few people that is willing to accept change than people who embraces the old system for fear of losing what they already have.  The capitalists out there though don’t seem to mind groups made of small numbers of people because of their number as they fight for social change in their area.

Social change when defines is a change that is happening in the environment, in our society, in the way we deal with other people, changes in the society or within the community. There are certainly good and bad side of social change including having social movements and social community organization that tries to work with it. One example of social change and the movement that is associated with it is the equal right movement for blacks in the United States. There was also the movement that was established for the right of women to vote or the suffrage right for women. It only means that social change can happen globally or within the locality and it can be caused by certain aspects like religion or economic or social forces that we encounter from time to time.

We also have what we call progressive organizing which is about defending the weak and providing for the needy in an attempt to have a balance world (Rubin & Rubin 2008, p.4). With progressive organizing, everyone is equal hence there is no racial discrimination and they have everyone and accepts everyone regardless of their culture and gender preference or skin color. These people are bonded with one goal and they have one belief in attaining their goal.

ABS 417 Week 3 Assignment Draft Paper

Community organizing is a way for people in the community to voice out their opinion as one and be heard by the people in the power like the local officials. Community organizations are good ways of making people bring their concerns in the public, their issues to be solved by those who can. Collective group often get the attention of the officials because their voice is stronger and they tend to get more attention than an individual asking for a change in the world. For a community organization to succeed it will need a good community organizer who will make plans on how to keep the voice of the group be heard and b noticed by those in the power.

In this paper, I will not be limited to community organization but I will also be talking about prejudice and the ranges of prejudice we have in this world. We have our prejudices against people that are old, people from different race and people from different culture.

History tells us how prejudice can affect someone’s ideas and how in the past it affected the lives of our ancestors. Psychology books and history books have been talking about how people are being subject to prejudice yet today there are still people out there that remains to be victims of prejudice.

Prejudice is one issued that our people in the past have been trying to win over and one of the examples that we have was the story of the Jim Crow era when Reconstruction was introduced. This era signify the change of relationship between the white people of the south and the freed Negros from the area. The Jim Crow era symbolizes how the whites felt threaten by the power of the black people hence they did everything they can to make sure that the blacks remain where they are, as slaves to the whites and took their human and civil rights from them. The blacks then suffered more humiliation through segregation and being hindered from showing their faces in public or even mingling with white folks.

In this era, the blacks are ordered not to mix with white people and to stay away from places where white people often spend their time. There was even a time when blacks are no longer allowed to sit beside a white folk in a public transportation and they are even asked to stay on the back of the bus. Blacks are often robbed and mobbed hence their lives were always at stake. If blacks are hired to do some jobs, it is for a very mean and cheap pay and they have to work hard to earn it and all the white folks can think about is that the blacks deserves to stay like that because they are blacks (AmericanRadioWorks, 2011).

Since the Jim Crow era took everything from the blacks, the blacks didn’t put themselves at risk and tried to keep pace with the white ones. Out of the said bad experience comes a good idea like the establishment of all black bars, all black restaurants and all black churches. With the blacks being united as one, the Civil Rights Movement for black people was born.

In the flowing year between 1954 up to 1965, there were civil rights movements that started the fight of the black people for their rights. It was the time when some rights were granted to the black people like their right to vote and be heard and the right to become a citizen of the United States (Joseph, 2010). Despite winning such rights for themselves, few blacks were able to exercise their rights without being hurt and harmed physically and personally.

With the sufferings of the black people come new leaders like Malcolm X and Stokely Carmichael. These people are the one who fueled and allowed the black people to live a
