Lesson 6, #2

Black people finally got their equal rights in America and now homosexuals are next to battle for their equality in America. I love this graphic cartoon because it contains a very powerful statement. America struggled with racial prejudice for many years and finally it has started to dissolve, and because of that we have been able to elect a black man for president. Now, our next step is about equal rights for homosexuals in America. Imagine, in 20 to 40 years in the future we may have a homosexual president. In this cartoon, there is a couple walking past two water fountains and the man mentions that the discrimination in America has ended, but he doesn’t realize that America is still stuck discriminating against homosexuality. There are many different kinds of prejudice in America that people are struggling to end. The question is what will be the major issue in America after homosexual discrimination is done?
