Bridge Over Troubled American Waters: Based on Race Division in America

"Bridge Over Troubled American Waters(Based On Race Divisions in America)African - Americans have advanced individually but as a unit, we have utterly failed. Our doctrine should be not to harvest one person or outside race with leadership.It is said that it is impossible for African - Americans to come together as ""one"" because of our mixed breeding with other races which has left us without a race identity.There are many people who are not enjoying the pinnacles of success in America. They have been heard to say that America does not practice what it preaches pertaining to articles found in the constitution denoting to the rights of all Americans."
