Reflection+for+Wall+1

Over 150 years have passed since Alexis de Tocqueville wrote __Democracy in America__. He questioned America's ability to last as a strong nation and as a peaceful nation. I believe that he was correct in his prediction; our nation has never been able to integrate both the black and white race. In the 1960s the civil rights period was one of the worst times in American history. Since then people have said that America has overcome the issues between races. Although we can now all sit at the same lunch counter, drink from the same water fountains, and learn at the same schools, we still have not overcome racism issues. People allover America still have a hatred for black people and they do not accept them as part of the American society. De Tocqueville's predictions have stayed true and America still does not seem to have the capacity to change.
