Fighting for change

Universally, the world has been fighting for rights, freedom and liberty. Wars have been fought for reasons today we still ponder on. Our Militaries are built stronger so we can have protection against our competition, yet our competition are building stronger armies as well. Yet, right here in American, individuals are fighting amongst each other, such as civil rights leaders, and Feminist arguing for equality. Union members arguing for fair wages. Yet we're at war with other nations. We all have to realize that the problem we have is bigger than human life. We are all fighting now for better health in the Post Modern civilization. Yet, we are building green cars, using less fuel, and focusing on new innovation. We're not just fight for civil rights, now we're fighting for precious life.

Intransigence

I always wonder, would've been so wrong for the Afrikaners to simply go into partnership with the people of South Africa? Ironically, Afrikaners were only 20% of the population in South Africa, yet they ruled 80% of all the Africans land due to inheritance of powers by their forefathers. I am personally angered and saddened at history that people could become so evil when it comes to commodities; which, belong to the gods of the land. I feel as if no one should profit from the land especially since the land originally belonged to the people of South Africa. No one went to England taking whatever commodities there. Just to mention, I've never heard of any textbook mentioning what England had. Could that have been intelligence to persuade others to give up rights?

The War and Leadership Problem The modern civilization was a time of social changes across the world; which included hostel take overs, competition and conflict with strange foreigners. Public policies and government worldwide along with commerce alliances created the need for power in many dictators. Even though some of these men (usually men) had great ideas, they also created much tension outside of their ethnicity. Such as Adolph Hitler this is a man who is hated by most, yet he did some good, such as job creations. According to Strayer’s Way of the World- A Brief Global History, “For many countries still suffering from the Depression throughout the 1930’s Hitler seemed to have found the secret for recovery: economic planning, controlled wages and prices, government investment , and enforced peace between capital and labor.” (pg. 640) Hence, these are the things we need in order to have order and to have a strong infrastructure. Indeed, were taught in grammar school and church that violence is not the solution, and in god we trust; all men are created equal. Yet nations have gone to war for the mere purpose of domination over other nations in the name of power. The text talks about labels such as fascism, communism; yet the main goal universally is once own individuality having the choice to think and analyze matter for self.
