Two emotions I've felt on this trip so far are enlightened by learning about the different types of struggles felt during the Civil rights movement and the different representatives of the different groups of people that were affected by the movement on both the side of the protesters and activists, and the law enforcement and government keeping in place the oppressive status quo against which activists protested; and appreciative of the sacrifices made and that are continually being made by activists from before the civil rights movement period all the way through to current social issues in order to secure an equal future for me, my peers, and future generations.
