so easy to portray this image as "good" vs "evil"; don't teachers have an obligation to fairness? were there social factors that caused the violence or are white southern policmen just naturally evil prejudiced bigots?

The right to vote was well worth the fight. Some people suffered but this was the means by which later generations could benefit.

This image evokes fear, anger and sadness that police would treat people like this. The right to vote was worth this struggle because it allows everyone's voice to be heard. It is sad that people who now have the vote often don't take advantage of this right.

1. The thoughts and feelings this image evokes are of hatred, anger, and violence.
2. One shouldn't have to fight for rights that should be guaranteed to everyone.
