Is There an Actual change?

Both readings were paired up to explain to us about how people of color were treated generations ago and how these people making movements wanted change. "I don't know What to Do With Good While People" and "Small Change" are talking about civil right movement time period and the time we live in now. " I Don't Know What to With Good White People" gives and image about how a black woman would see white people. The author is talking about how she grew up around good white people and friends. The thesis of the article is questioning whether she should like white people? Yes there are now laws that prohibit bad doing to people of different races but is that true? In "Small Change" the author talks about how we can not make change like we could during the civil rights movement because we are stuck behind our computers and social media. " Be the change that you want to see in the world", Gandhi's  famous quote. We can not just sit back and watch things solve themselves. The argument talks about how racism was since the civil rights movement until now. There is unfortunately some room still for racism in now days.
